Persona 3 Reload is receiving an expansion pass, adding the much-requested expansion The Answer.

The remake was criticised for not including all expansions from previous versions of the game, though dataminers discovered hints of this expansion pass last week.

As announced at tonight's Xbox Partner Preview, Episode Aigis is coming in September 2024 as the third wave of the expansion pass.

Before that, on 12th March, two music sets from Persona 5 Royal and Persona 4 Golden will be added.

In May, the second wave will add new costumes and music from The Velvet Room.

Then Episode Aigis: The Answer will arrive in September. This expansion, originally included in Persona 3 FES, adds an epilogue focused on AI character Aigis to round out the story.
