Atlus offered a peek at the Persona 3 Reload art book concept art images of hero Makoto Yuki and ally Yukari Takeba. Both appear on a page from the collection.
The Persona 3 Reload concept art for Makoto, which is the canon name for the hero in the game, is almost entirely in black and white. The only hint of color is the red S.E.E.S. band on his left arm. He’s looking up at the viewer and wearing his school uniform, complete with his headphones.
Meanwhile, the Yukari concept art shows her as though she’s about to head into battle and features a bit more color to it. She’s wearing a black jacket over her regular school uniform. While the S.E.E.S. armband isn’t present, the left shoulder does feature that iconography. She’s also holding a bow and about to pull out an arrow to use with it.
Here’s the page from the Persona 3 Reload artbook included in the Digital Deluxe Edition. Should someone get that version of the game, it will appear on page 58 of the book.
This isn’t the only bit of behind-the-scenes insight into the game. Atlus shared a video in October 2023 with the new Persona 3 Reload Makoto, Junpei, and Yukari voice actors discussing what it was like to play the characters. That also featured a peek at some gameplay footage and recording sessions.
Persona 3 Reload will be released on the PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and PC worldwide on February 2, 2024. Persona 3 Portable is available on the PS4, PSP, Switch, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and PC. The original Persona 3 and its FES release are available on the PS2.
