New Persona 3 Reload footage came out on July 20, 2023 during BiliBili’s “High Energy Game Fest” 2023 live stream. Today’s trailer focuses on Akihiko, Mitsuru, and Fuuka, who will all become playable in the first quarter or so of the game. The trailer is around a minute long. Most of the BiliBili trailer actually uses a lot of footage from previous videos Atlus shared for the game, like the Anime Expo 2023 one. [Thanks, Persona Central!]
You can watch the Persona 3 Reload Akihiko, Fuuka, and Mitsuru trailer on YouTube, via Persona Central’s account:
The first part of it focuses on Fuuka, starting from when you find her in Tartarus and rescue her during the story. Then it shows a part of her Social Link. Afterwards, it shifts the attention to Mitsuru. Finally, it looks at Akihiko. It also shows some of Akihiko’s moves in combat, complete with his Persona summoning and post-battle animation.
A previous trailer for Persona 3 Reload off the English voice cast, as well as gameplay footage. Quite a few of the scenes from that trailer are in today’s BiliBili trailer too. For example, we already saw footage of Fuuka’s scenes from the story.
Persona 3 Reload will be a remake of the original Persona 3 game, though it will feature elements such as QoL improvements from FES. In order to modernize Persona 3 for today’s Persona players, Atlus will make certain mechanics like maxing out Social Links easier, as well as remove the fatigue system that was in the original.
Persona 3 Reload will come out on the PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X, Xbox One, and Windows PC via Steam some time in early 2024.
