The Persona 3 remake is out this February with revamped mechanics and new battle music.

Persona 3 Reload, the remake of the cult-classic PlayStation 2 JRPG, is set to release on February 2, as revealed in a brand-new trailer that debuted during Gamescom 2023.
The remake, which was first announced earlier this year during the Xbox Showcase in June, is a full remake of the original PlayStation 2 title, omitting content that was then later added to Persona 3 Portable on PSP. This means that you'll be confined to playing as a male protagonist, and won't have the choice to choose a female protagonist that FES presented. The game is being remade in Unreal Engine and looks to be taking a lot of inspiration from the series' most recent entry, Persona 5, and its larger Royal version.
