A remake of Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey for the Nintendo 3DS has been announced as Shin Megami Tensei: Deep Strange Journey.

The remake of the original DS RPG, released on October 8, 2009, will be a more refined version of the game with additional elements such as cutscenes, an opening animation, voice acting, and more. Gameplay refinements will include the ability to save at any time while exploring a dungeon.

There will be a new character called Alex (voiced by Megumi Han), who is tied to the game’s new ending path.

This was shown during the Atlus Announcement 2017 (Spring) live stream.
