Bandai Namco Amusement announced that it will hold a crossover event based on Atlus’ Persona 3 Reload at two of its facilities in Japan, including the Namjatown theme park, with merchandise and new art. The company will run the event throughout the 2024-2025 winter season.
The event will feature a new collection of original Persona 3 Reload merchandise. A majority of the items will feature all of the game’s main characters drawn with chibi proportions and cat ears—including the Shiba dog Koromaru. Other than regular purchases from the merchandise booth, visitors can get more cat-themed merchandise by playing a roulette game that costs ¥600 (~$4) per pull and joining a photo rally game by paying an extra ¥900 (~$6).
Bandai Namco will also produce meals and drinks themed after Persona 3 characters at the event. The Namjatown venue will have the following menu:
- Hero and Junpei’s Hagakure-style Special Ramen – ¥1,200 (~$8)
- Yukari and Fuka’s Strawberry-style Sweets Plate – ¥1,100 (~$6)
- Akihiko, Mitsuru, and Shinjiro’s Tartaros Parfait – ¥1,000 (~$6)
- Koromaru and Ken’s Hamburg Mini Omurice – ¥1,300 (~$9)
- Hero and Ryoji’s Temari Onigiri – ¥1,150 (~$7)
- Aigis and Metis’ Orgia Mode Float – ¥1,100 (~$7)
This will not be the only Persona 3 Reload physical event to run in the 2024-2025 winter season. Atlus is also working with Yokohama Hakkeijima Sea Paradise to hold a re-run of its 2024 event concurrently from January 9 until February 17, 2025.
The Persona 3 Reload crossover event at the Namjatown theme park inside Sunshine City in Ikebukuro, Tokyo will run from December 20, 2024, until January 26, 2025. Bandai Namco will also hold a similar event at its Cross Store in Hakata, Fukuoka, from January 31 until February 22, 2025.
