Persona 3 Reload's producer, Ryota Niitsuma, recently explained why the developers at Atlus decided to remake the original game. Persona 3 Reload launched on February 2 after much anticipation, with the title being a full recreation of the original 2006 JRPG that adds a number of quality-of-life improvements to bring it closer to games like Persona 5, while also adding extra material from past re-releases.
