Persona 3 Reload Nintendo Switch 2 review – a pristine port of the revived RPG
I think Atlus is one of my favorite game developers. They release hit after hit, which are all excellent to play and really good quality from the art, to the music, to the story – and Persona 3 Reload’s Nintendo Switch 2 port is absolutely another win. The game excels on consoles, and now it shines on handheld for those of us who want to take it on the go.
Persona 3 Reload originally released in February 2024 on consoles and PC, and now we have it on Nintendo Switch 2. It’s a remake of Atlus’ 2006 title, though doesn’t bring in any changes that came to Persona 3 Portable and Persona 3 FES. This is due to keeping it faithful to the original, which I understand, but I’m sad that the female protagonist didn’t get to come back into the spotlight.
The game kicks off in classic Atlus style. You’re a schoolboy who returns to your home town to attend highschool. Here, you quickly find that all is not as it seems, and you’re kind of being initiated into a vigilante group that goes out at night to slay Shadows. During the day, you’re off to school, where you need to pay attention in lessons in order to up your skills. Afterward, you can get a job or two to make some cash, and hang out with people to strengthen your social links.
