Devil Summoner: Soul Hackers is a 1997 role-playing game for the Sega Saturn. It is the second installment in the Devil Summoner series. Developed and published by Atlus, the game made its debut in Japan on November 13, 1997.

In its narrative, Devil Summoner: Soul Hackers combines cyberpunk elements with occult themes, creating a distinctive and immersive gaming experience. Players navigate the futuristic city of Amami, encountering demons, hacking into computer systems, and unraveling a complex plot that intertwines technology and the supernatural. The game stands out for its engaging story-line, strategic turn-based battles, and the inclusion of the Devil Summoning System, allowing players to conjure and control demons to aid them in their quest.

Atlus has re-released this game twice. First, as a port for the PlayStation on April 8, 1999. This port was only released in Japan.

The second re-release was on Nintendo 3DS. It was released on August 30, 2012 in Japan, on April 16, 2013 in North America, September 20, 2013 in Europe, and September 26, 2013 in Australia. This remaster not only introduced enhanced graphics and additional content but also marked the first and only official release of Soul Hackers outside of Japan.

Soul Hackers received two sequels. The first is a direct sequel in Devil Summoner: Soul Hackers: Intruder, and the second is Soul Hackers 2.
