Sega and Atlus have announced that Persona 3 Reload is coming to Nintendo Switch 2 on October 23. The game was announced for the console with a trailer during the recent Nintendo Direct: Partner Showcase. Check out the trailer below.
Much like other modern games in the Persona franchise, Persona 3 Reload puts players in the shoes of a high school student that must, by day, live out their regular school life, and by night, must take on fearsome demons as a plot that involves heavy philosophy unfolds in front of them. As part of living out their school life, the protagonist also has to study for tests, hang out with friends, and even explore the city.
As its name might imply, Persona 3 Reload is a remake of classic PS2 RPG Persona 3. The original was the first game in the Persona franchise to give it the form we would eventually come to associate with the series, with a balance struck between living out a regular life and dungeon crawling to fight demons. We would eventually see the ideas expanded upon with games like Persona 4 and Persona 5.
The Switch 2 release will also likely include the Episode: Aigis DLC that was released for Persona 3 Reload on other platforms.
