Why do you need to use rewind?

In Persona 3 Reload, you are generally free to decide how to spend your time. However, sometimes the game will restrict certain activities based on your Social Link level. The Rewind feature can help you go back to make sure you have the correct Social Link at the necessary level.

For example, during the summer break that begins in late July, school-related social connections are cut off until school resumes in September. During this month, there are opportunities to attend special events such as the Summer Carnival with school friends. The decisions you make during this time will affect which events you see, and using Rewind can help you make the choices that get you the results you want.

Persona 3

Persona 3 Reload is a video game in which the player takes on the role of a character who returns to her hometown ten years after the death of her parents. It is a remake of the 2006 Persona 3 and is part of the larger Megami Tensei series. You can play it on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S, and it is released on February 2, 2024.

As in the original game, the protagonist is a high school student who has the ability to summon a Persona, which is a manifestation of their inner spirit. Together with other Persona users, they join a group called the Special Extracurricular Execution Squad (SEES). Together, they are tasked with defeating the Shadows and solving the mystery of the Dark Hour.

Fans have been asking for a Persona 3 remake, especially after the success of Persona 5 in 2016, and Atlus has officially acknowledged those requests. Development on Persona 3 began in 2019, with it first reported in April 2023 and then officially announced in June 2023.

The game faithfully retells the story of the original Persona 3, but with updated graphics and features to match subsequent games in the series. Narinori Soejima oversaw new art direction by Tomohiro Kumagai and character designs by Azusa Shimada. Atsushi Hojo composed new music and rearranged the original tracks, including new vocal tracks by Yasumi Takahashi and Lotus Juice.

Persona 3 Gameplay

Persona 3 is a game that mixes RPG and simulation elements. In the game, you play as a high school student dealing with daily life, going to school, and forming relationships. However, during a mysterious time, the Hour of Darkness, you also have to fight evil creatures known as Shadows. Your day is divided into day and night. In addition to scripted events, you can choose how to spend the time of each day, which affects the attributes of your character: Academics, Charisma, and Courage. At night, you can visit the main dungeon, Hell, to accumulate experience and items for your team. On days with a full moon, there will be boss battles to advance the story.

The main feature of the game is the Persona, a creature associated with a Tarot card. Each Persona has strengths, weaknesses, and different abilities. While other characters have their own Persona, the protagonist can use multiple Personas in battle. You can create new Personas by fusing existing ones. Social Links are new to the series and represent the bonds formed with the Characters, each of which is associated with a Tarot card. Spending time with them increases the Social Link level, which is rewarded when creating a Persona of that Tarot card. Negative actions can break or reverse a Social Link.

The Underworld is the main dungeon, accessible at night. Players can explore, split up party members, and fight Shadows. Boss floors and story progression affect progress. Spending too much time in the Underworld can make your character tired or sick, affecting performance. When you come into contact with a Shadow, the battle begins, using a turn-based system that includes both physical and elemental attacks. Exploiting weaknesses allows your character to knock down an enemy, earning extra turns. Winning battles earns experience points, which you can use to level up your Persona to gain better attributes and abilities.
