Atlus has revealed that the Persona 3 Reload Expansion Pass will be available from this month, with the first content arriving on 12th March, building up to the release of Episode Aigis -The Answer- in September 2024. Oh, and here’s a neat twist for Xbox gamers: the Expansion Pass will be included as a freebie Perk for Xbox Game Pass subscribers!
Before September, the Expansion Pass is really all about music. On 12th March you’ll be able to drop the Persona 5 Royal EX BGM Set and Persona 4 Golden EX BGM Set into the game when exploring and battling in dungeons, including the following tracks:
- “Life Will Change”
- “Beneath the Mask”
- “Kichijoji 199X”
- “Gentle Madman”
- “I believe”
- “Keeper of Lust”
- “Blooming Villain”
- “Victory”
- “Backside of the TV”
- “Game”
- “Junes Theme”
- “Heaven”
- “Long Way”
- “Revelations: Mitsuo”
- “The Almighty”
- “Results”
In May, players will get the Velvet Costume and BGM Set, with a Velvet Room themed costume for al playable characters, and the following remixes to listen to:
- “Electronica In Velvet Room (“P4D” ver.)”
- “Battle Hymn of the Soul (t.komine REMIX “AT 1st” P3D-EDIT ver.)”
- “Battle Hymn of the Soul (Daisuke Asakura Remix)”
- “Battle Hymn of the Soul -USH ver.-”
- “Dance Hymn of the Soul (Disco In Velvet Room)”
It’s really all about Episode Aigis -The Answer- though, the final piece of the Expansion Pass. This is a combination of the Japanese and English names for the post-game epilogue scenario that was added with the Persona 3 FES release, and notably absent from Persona 3 Reload at launch.
“Persona 3 Reload would not be complete without Episode Aigis –The Answer-,” says General Producer Kazuhisa Wada. “The epilogue is sure to satisfy both those who have played the original Persona 3 FES and those who are just starting out.”
P3R is pretty fab, regardless. In our review, Nic said, “Persona 3 Reload is a dream come true for Persona fans. With far more than just a visual uplift, this is very much the best possible edition of the game, even if it can’t quite be called ‘definitive’.”
That’s set to change later this year.
