Gamescom Opening Night Live 2024 is here, bringing some of the biggest news this year regarding games to come - and Persona 3 Reload made a banger appearance with a teaser for its upcoming DLC, Episode Aigis.

The final of the Persona 3 Reload DLC packs, Episode Aigis, is coming soon - and it's bringing a surprise throwback along when it drops this fall, September 10. Persona 5 protagonist Joker is making a grand return to the series in the epilogue expansion, albeit this time as a boss rather than a playable character. That's right - the S.E.E.S team will get to face off against one of the previous greats himself.

Episode Aigis' new teaser shows Joker making a stunning appearance before the Persona 3 Reload epilogue's crew - an epic entrance if I do say so myself. Exciting doesn't quite cut it - I look forward to seeing how this one-off battle with the Persona 5 figure fits in between the 30 or so hours of story content coming with Episode Aigis. I'm also intrigued to learn just how difficult the fight is.

If you're similarly interested in snagging the epilogue as soon as it drops, you can grab the Expansion Pass right now for $34.99 to gain access to all of the Persona 3 Reload DLC. For reference, that includes special soundtracks from Persona 4 Golden and Persona 5 Royal, as well as Velvet Room-themed costumes - on top of the game-sized Episode Aigis DLC itself.

Take a look at our new games 2024 guide for more to look forward to.

After spending years with her head in various fantastical realms' clouds, Anna studied English Literature and then Medieval History at the University of Edinburgh, going on to specialize in narrative design and video game journalism as a writer. She has written for various publications since her postgraduate studies, including Dexerto, Fanbyte, GameSpot, IGN, PCGamesN, and more. When she's not frantically trying to form words into coherent sentences, she's probably daydreaming about becoming a fairy druid and befriending every animal or she's spending a thousand (more) hours traversing the Underdark in Baldur's Gate 3. If you spot her away from her PC, you'll always find Anna with a fantasy book, a handheld video game console of some sort, and a Tamagotchi or two on hand.
