Persona 3 Reload – Expansion Pass: A Familiar Foe 

Players can fight Joker, the main protagonist of Persona 5, in an optional battle specifically created for Episode Aigis: The Answer. This echoes the previous Persona games’ optional bosses, which include high-powered enemies, side characters within their respective stories, or previous main protagonists. Beyond that, little information is known about how players will encounter Joker. Probably won’t see him coming, right?

Episode Aigis: The Answer puts S.E.E.S members in a never-ending time loop on March 31st. Within that loop, they must plumb the depths of an area known as The Abyss of Time. As they explore, they will come to terms with themselves, discover why the time loop persists, and realize how they can move on from the events of Persona 3 Reload.
