Gamers are still rightfully praising Atlus for releasing Persona 3 Reload earlier in the month. The remake was a true “labor of love,” and it showed. Not only were the graphics overhauled, but new gameplay elements were added, other quality-of-life improvements were interlaced with the previous version to make it stand out from the crowd, and they even brought in a new voice-acting crew to give the game a new sound.
