Today’s Nintendo Direct featured a wealth of new information and upcoming releases for the console. One of them was a demo for Persona 3 Reload. We already knew that Persona 3 Reload was on its way to Nintendo Switch 2 from an earlier Direct this year, so it is great to see the demo is available!
Atlus shares the contents of the demo as follows:
“In the Nintendo Switch 2 demo, players can experience the opening of Persona 3 Reload and step into the shoes of a transfer student thrust into an unexpected fate. Awaken an incredible power and chase the mysteries of the Dark Hour, fight for your friends, and leave a mark on their memories forever.
Play through the story’s opening, leading up to the intense, first major boss battle against a formidable, large Shadow. Save data from the demo carries over to the full game, so players who purchase the full game can continue their journey right from where they left off!”
Persona 3 Reload is a remake of the original Persona 3, remade in the engine from Persona 5 Royal. It looks better and it plays better than the original. You can read our review of the game on the website.
Persona 3 Reload releases on October 23rd, 2025, for Nintendo Switch 2. It is currently available on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
