It was hinted at in the game's latest trailer, but now it's been confirmed through an official press release: Persona 3 Reload will feature all-new story scenes and additional character interactions. Overall, the remake will obviously stick to the original plot, but it sounds like Atlus has taken this opportunity to expand upon all sorts of stuff, such as Strega — the antagonist group.
"Persona 3 Reload will also have completely new scenes focusing on members of Strega. Look forward to
learning more about their past and perspective," reads the press material. This is in addition to fresh "Linked Episodes", which reveal "sides of certain characters that have never been explored".
Atlus goes on to explain that offering advice and friendship during these new interactions will unlock more persona fusions. In the original Persona 3, you couldn't actually forge social links with your male allies, so we're left wondering whether this new system fills the gaps.
Are you happy to know Persona 3 Reload has more of... well, pretty much everything? Tell us about the character interactions you'd like to see in the comments section below.

This doesn't even come close to making up for cutting Femc and Answer. Hate to see incomplete remakes like this. Game devs are getting lazier and greedier with each year, trying to charge more for less content. Sad, really.
I'm glad that Atlus decided to flesh out Strega more in Reload. In the OG P3, they were rarely a threat.
It’s hard. Some elements like this are a welcome addition. The lack of FeMC and The Answer is huge, but it also would be a ludicrous undertaking to do all of that in one dev cycle. The graphical improvements are fantastic but then I’ve not been that enamoured with the changed music. It’s a bit give and take.
Personally I think the music that's been shown so far absolutely bangs. That new battle theme is stuck in my head and I haven't even listened to the full track yet😂
@homelesscretin I agree, I think the music's sounded superb so far!
@GloriosaDaisy Not having the Answer for FeMC in a complete remake of an 80 hour PS2 game (without that content) isn't laziness or greed).
I'd take either a new ending or a sequel that ***** still got me tight lmao
