Persona 3 Reload

Persona 3 Reload is a full remake of Atlus' role-playing game Persona 3, developed by P-Studio and published by Atlus. It follows a silent transfer student who arrives on Tatsumi Port Island and is drawn into SEES, a student group that fights the Shadows during the Dark Hour, a hidden 25th hour that descends at midnight. By day the protagonist attends Gekkoukan High School, builds relationships through Social Links and raises Social Stats; by night the party climbs the shifting tower of Tartarus and carries out operations on the nights of the full moon, summoning their Personas by pointing an Evoker at their own head. The remake rebuilt the original with full voice acting, a rearranged score, expanded character stories, and the new Theurgy ultimate attacks, and it added the Episode Aigis: The Answer epilogue as paid downloadable content. A Nintendo Switch 2 version of the game was released on October 23, 2025.

• The Dark Hour - A hidden 25th hour that arrives at midnight, when ordinary people are transmogrified into coffins and Shadows roam the streets of Tatsumi Port Island. Only those with the potential to wield a Persona stay awake through it, and it is the only window in which Tartarus can be entered.
• Evoker Summoning - SEES members point a gun-shaped Evoker at their own head to summon their Persona, the manifestation of their psyche. Each Persona has its own arcana, elemental affinities and weaknesses, and can be fused and registered in the Velvet Room.
• Tartarus and Full Moon Operations - The party climbs Tartarus, the 264-floor tower that replaces Gekkoukan High School at night and reshuffles its layout on every visit, while scripted operations on the nights of the full moon pit them against the greater Shadows outside the tower.
• One More, Knock Down and All-out Attacks - Hitting an enemy's elemental weakness or landing a critical hit knocks it down and grants the attacker another action. Downing every enemy in a group opens an All-out Attack that deals heavy Almighty damage to the whole group.
• Social Links and Social Stats - Relationships with classmates, teammates and townsfolk advance Social Links that grant experience bonuses when fusing Personas of the matching arcana, gated behind Social Stats such as Academics, Charm and Courage raised through daily activities and part-time work.
• Theurgy - Reload's signature ultimate mechanic. Each character charges a personal gauge through their own actions and then spends it on a unique Theurgy attack, giving every party member a high-impact finisher on top of their Persona skills.
• Link Episodes - New character stories written for Reload that deepen the male party members and other supporting figures outside the classic Social Link set, with fully voiced scenes and their own rewards.
