    Persona 3 Reload Rated by the ESRB

    Just a few more months until launch.

    Published:

    The Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB) have rated SEGA and ATLUS’ Persona 3 Reload ahead of the game’s launch this coming February. Ratings typically indicate that the game’s development is complete or close-to-complete.

    Leading up to launch, ATLUS are releasing new character trailers for Persona 3 Reload. In addition, more news is revealed during each full moon, so fans can expect updates at lease once a month. The next full moon occurs right after Christmas on December 26, and the game may reach gold status before then.

    Persona 3 Reload ESRB Rating

    Persona 3 Reload has been rated M for Mature just like past Persona entries. The rating’s description also describes Persona 3 Reload’s activities such as Social Links and dorm life

    Here’s the official ratings description, via the ESRB:

    This is a role-playing game in which players assume the roles of high-school students investigating a mysterious tower that only appears at midnight. During the day, players interact with classmates, teachers, and town characters, gaining social links to improve relationships and abilities. At night, players explore the tower and engage in battles against human and fantastical enemies (e.g., shadows, demons, spirits) in turn-based combat. Players select weapon and magic attacks from summoned persona creatures to kill enemies; battles are accompanied by impact sounds, gunfire, and cries of pain.

    Cutscenes also contain instances of violence and/or blood: a creature’s arm cut off and crushed, with blood-splatter effects; characters shot, also with blood-splatter effects; pools of blood on the ground; characters shooting themselves in the head to summon personas. The game contains some sexual material: female demons with partially exposed breasts and buttocks; a creature with a phallic-shaped head and torso. Some demons (e.g., succubus, incubus) have sexual characteristics that are described in the text (e.g., “They visit sleeping men/women and have sexual intercourse with them.”). The words “f**k” and “sh*t” appear in the game.

    Lastly, Persona 3 Reload releases February 2, 2024 across PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam and Windows. Pre-orders are available now for Persona 3 Reload and the all-new HYTE collaboration products.
