This is actually something we’ve seen before for other platforms. Back in April 2025, Atlus released this free trial for the PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and PC.

It is actually a snippet from the beginning of the game. We can start our adventure and get introduced to SEES, Tartarus, and the world of Personas. This means samples of both the day-to-day school life at Gekkoukan High School, as well as the turn-based battles when we head into the dungeon during the Midnight Hour. You can save during it, and that file can be used in the full version of the game when it debuts on October 23, 2025. 

Here’s the official Japanese announcement and trailer for the Persona 3 Reload Switch 2 release and trial.

Persona 3 Reload will come to the Switch 2 on October 23, 2025, and the demo is available worldwide now. The game is already on the PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and PC, and the same trial is available on those platforms too.
