Release Date: February 2, 2024
A remake of an iconic 2007 jRPG, developed by Atlus and running on the Unreal Engine. Persona 3 Reload has us playing as a Japanese high school student, facing monsters known as Shadows during the night.
Persona 3 Reload is a remake of Persona 3, an iconic 2007 jRPG. It was developed by Atlus, the company in charge of the franchise.
Persona 3 Reload is set in a fictional Japanese town of Iwatodai, home to an unusual phenomenon. Every day a Dark Hour occurs at midnight, an additional hour during which most people turn into coffins. The exceptions are several students from Gekkoukan High School, who have other issues to deal with during that time. Each Dark Hour their school turns into a massive tower called the Tartarus, filled with monsters called Shadows. They're opposed by the SEES (Specialized Extracurricular Execution Squad), a group of students tasked with fighting the monsters. They fight using the titular Personas, reflections of their hearts which reveal themselves in face of danger.
We play as one of the members of the SEES. During the day he's a regular student, while during the night he climbs Tartarus, fighting Shadows. It's up to us to maintain balance between both of his lives.
Persona 3 Reload is a third-person game (TPP). The gameplay is divided into two layers, the first being ordinary school life. During the day we must attend classes, take exams, attend school dances or participate in sports competitions. We must also establish and maintain friendships and relationships.
During the night we battle Shadows alongside our classmates, using our Personas. Battles are turn-based. To succeed, we must skillfully use the abilities of the party's different Personas. The events during the day have an effect on the might - some of our party members may be unavailable, busy studying or recovering from an illness. Maintaining our bonds with them makes them stronger too.
Progressing through the game develops our character and grants new Personas, which can be fused together into more powerful forms.
Compared to the original game, the remake contains new scenes, events and gameplay changes, mostly involving the combat system.
Persona 3 Reload runs on the Unreal Engine. The game retains the original's colorful, manga-like artstyle, though the visuals have been refreshed and are now more detailed. The audio was also changed; the soundtrack consists of new tracks and remixes of the original songs, while the English voice cast was entirely recast.
Persona 3 Reload only contains content from the original Persona 3. There's no content from Persona 3 Portable or Persona 3 FES.

A series of jRPG games overseen by Atlus. The series was launched in 1996, by the game Revelations: Persona, which is a spin-off of the brand Shin Megami Tensei (originally known globally as Revelations). The production, which debuted on PlayStation consoles, was so successful that it eventually gave rise to a new, separate series. Although from the beginning the series was associated with PlayStation consoles, over the years it has also made its presence felt on other platforms.

Game is Recomended by 98% of Critics. There are 163 Critic Reviews.
Pure Nintendo: 9 / 10 by Kirk Hiner
Persona 3 Reload's strengths are in its details. The game's turn-based combat and social aspects should become repetitive, but they build effectively throughout. More importantly, the style, story, and characters are continually compelling, driving to a finish that will stick with you well after the game's finished.
Metro GameCentral: 8 / 10
A solid, if strangely incomplete, remake which matches Persona 5 for presentation and has some of the most interesting and varied social link options of the whole series.
God is a Geek: 9.5 / 10 by Lyle Carr
Persona 3 Reload improves the original version of the game in so many ways, and is absolutely essential for all RPG fans.
