GUI enhancements include objective descriptions of story missions and improved maps, similar to features in Persona 5. New gameplay includes expanded activities in Iwatodai Dormitory, allowing for interaction with dorm residents, cooking, gardening, watching movies, and reading books to enhance social stats. The protagonist can also participate in these activities with teammates to provide buffs for the battle.

Gekkoukan High School and the quest for Tartarus have been modified. In-class questions are new, and exploration now takes place in a third-person perspective with free camera control. The world map is fully rendered in 3D, and fast travel options have been expanded.

Persona 3: Reloaded introduces new social elements independent of social links, featuring side stories to support the characters. Tartarus retains its structure but offers more environmental variety and visual effects. The fatigue mechanic has been removed, allowing for uninterrupted exploration.

During combat, players can directly control party members or let the CPU determine their actions. The user interface is inspired by Persona 5, with commands such as Persona, Item, Guard, and Attack. New commands such as “Investigate” and “Assist” have been introduced. The “Shift” ability allows party members to take turns among themselves. The “Baton Pass” skill in Persona 5 has been adapted into “Shift”, which can strategically knock down enemies.

Shuffle Time is a post-war mini-game that allows players to manually select a card for additional roles and effects. Overall, Persona 3: Reloaded combines familiar elements with improvements to enhance the gameplay experience.

They discover the origins of Tartarus and the impending danger of Nyx, a force that could end the world.
