Reload will adapt the already introduced mechanics of Persona 5 and introduce a new take on the popular mix of the traditional JRPG route and social simulation genre. There will be new side stories and upgrades to the main quests in this retake of Persona 3. So, players can expect to spend a good amount of time in the game.
Now, if you are like me, then you are probably wondering how long it will take to beat Persona 3. Well, that’s a bit of a complicated question to ask, as there are a lot of activities, upgrades, and storylines to consider. But don’t worry. I will take all of that into consideration and give you a number you can work around.
So, without further ado, let’s dive into the details, shall we?
Total Hours to Beat P3R
Unlike the first Persona 3, Reload implements some additions, negations, and changes in the overall storyline. The female protagonist route has been cut off, and so has the Epilogue ‘The Answer’.
On the other hand, there are more new activities and dungeons to explore. With all of this in consideration, it should take you about 75 to 80 hours to complete the main storyline of Persona 3 Reload.
If you are taking a laid-back approach, then you might spend around 100 hours or so. For the completionists out there, this number will go up to 120 to 140 hours.
Overall, if you are a beginner in the game, then you can expect to finish it in about 85 hours or so.
Best of luck!
