In June, the announcement of Persona 3 Reload finally addressed the longing of many devoted series fans. After the underwhelming release of Persona 3 Portable on modern consoles earlier this year, Persona 3 Reload seems to align much more closely with the desires of fans seeking a contemporary rendition of the pivotal point in the Persona franchise.
This iteration of the game is meticulously crafted using the Unreal Engine, offering a fully modernised perspective on the timeless entry that debuted in the West back in 2007.
Persona 3 initially introduced various mechanics that later became foundational elements in subsequent entries, notably the beloved Social Links. The absence of Persona 3 would likely have significantly altered the trajectory of more recent titles like Persona 4 Golden and Persona 5 Royal.
