Back in 2019 my backlog was empty, I know shocking. I was looking for something new to play and that’s when I saw Digimon Cyber Sleuth: Complete Edition. I always wanted to try a Digimon game and decided to buy it since I was getting two games for the price of one.
Background
Digimon Cyber Sleuth: Complete Edition contains two different Digimon games. Those games are Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth and Digimon Story Cyber Sleuth-Hacker’s Memory. Each game has its own story that still connects to one another. Each game also shares some characters. You play as different main characters in each game progressing through a story that is happening at the same time as the other game. In one you play as a detective’s assistant solving mysteries, and in the other you are a hacker trying to prove your innocence for a crime you didn’t do.
Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth
I played this game first between the two. As I mentioned before the story revolves around you working at a detective agency through various events helping to solve crimes and mysteries. Throughout the story you’ll help people with minor problems to people with bigger problems. Eventually you get caught up in events that could change the world.
Music
The music in this game was really good. Between the two this one has the most songs that I like. I think this is due to Hacker’s Memory sharing a lot of its OST with this game since they take place in the same word and share story elements. I’ve got some of my favorite tracks picked out for you to listen to. I hope you enjoyed them as much as I did. As per usual if you open these videos in YouTube the comments will contain spoilers.
Digimon Story Cyber Sleuth-Hacker’s Memory
The story of this revolves around the main character trying to clear their name after being accused of a crime they didn’t commit. You join a hacker group known as Huddie. As you take on different jobs you get caught up in a potential world changing event. This story seemed a little darker than the other game. It definitely has some twists in it unlike Cyber Sleuth. One thing I found odd was that in this game you can’t choose your gender. In the Cyber Sleuth you can do that.
This game features different game play types from the other game. One such type is territory battles. Territory battles are a type of mission where you take over another hacker team’s area. Another type is domination battles. This involves two teams of hackers trying to collect the most points.
Music
Unfortunately there were not a lot of new tracks added in this game’s OST. Like I said earlier it shares most of its music with Cyber Sleuth. There are a couple good tracks that I picked out.
Conclusion
I would highly recommend getting this game when you get the chance. Something that I enjoyed about both games was having three Digimon in a battle at the same time. I also liked being able to evolve a Digimon and revert it back as many times as I wanted. It took some time getting used to those mechanics since all I know is Pokémon.
It’s available for Nintendo Switch and for PC via STEAM. Currently it’s discounted to $14.99 on STEAM until June 24th or you can buy it from Bandai Namco’s store on Switch for $29.95. I enjoyed both of these games and put in a crazy amount of hours between them both. As usual thank you all for reading.
