Persona 3 Reload Editions: What Standard, Deluxe and Premium Include
Compare Persona 3 Reload editions, digital extras and DLC contents. See why Digital Premium, the Aigis Edition and Episode Aigis are different.
Persona 3 Reload’s Standard edition contains the base game. Digital Deluxe adds a digital artbook and soundtrack. Digital Premium adds those extras and the launch DLC Pack—but not the Episode Aigis story expansion.
For the main game and epilogue, you need Reload plus the compatible Episode Aigis expansion. The physical Aigis collector’s edition and the Episode Aigis story add-on are different products.
Persona 3 Reload editions compared
On Steam and PlayStation, the three game editions follow the structure below. Nintendo Switch 2 uses the same broad Standard, Deluxe and Premium tiers, but has a separately named Premium DLC Pack and different artbook details.
| Edition | Included content | Choose it if | Episode Aigis? |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | Reload base game | You want the main campaign without bundled art, music or launch add-ons. | No |
| Digital Deluxe | Game, digital artbook and soundtrack | You want the digital viewing/listening apps; check their format below. | No |
| Digital Premium | Deluxe contents plus the launch DLC Pack | You also want the launch costume, Persona and BGM sets. | No—separate expansion |
All three tiers contain the same main campaign. The difference is the bundled extras, not a longer base story.
Choose by the contents you need
If your priority is the main story and epilogue, compare the cost of a base-game edition plus its compatible expansion. On Switch 2, look for the Episode Aigis -The Answer- Pack. Spending more on a higher game tier does not meet that separate need.
For physical collectibles, use the regional Aigis Edition examples below. A collector’s box and a story expansion are different purchases despite sharing Aigis’s name.
What Digital Deluxe adds
Digital Deluxe is the option that bundles the game with its digital artbook and soundtrack. These extras are digital applications, not a printed book and a physical CD set.
The Steam listing describes a 64-page artbook and a soundtrack containing 60 tracks. The PlayStation version also lists a 64-page digital artbook. Both stores specify that the bundled soundtrack is played through its application rather than downloaded as audio files such as MP3s.
If you need MP3s for another player or a physical album, look for a separate music release; this bundle supplies a listening app.
What Digital Premium’s DLC Pack contains
Digital Premium adds the launch DLC Pack to the Deluxe contents. The PlayStation product description identifies seven sets, grouped below by what they change:
| Type | Included sets | What this is not |
|---|---|---|
| Costumes | Persona 5 Royal Phantom Thieves; Persona 5 Royal Shujin Academy; Persona 4 Golden Yasogami High | A new story episode |
| Personas | Persona 5 Royal Persona Set 1; Persona 5 Royal Persona Set 2; Persona 4 Golden Persona Set | The Persona 5 or Persona 4 games |
| Battle music | Persona 5 Royal BGM Set | The digital soundtrack application |
The soundtrack app is for listening; the BGM Set changes music inside the game.
For the epilogue’s contents and requirements, use the Persona 3 Reload Expansion Pass guide.
Aigis collector’s edition: US and Asia contents compared
Aigis Edition is a physical collector’s package, not the Episode Aigis -The Answer- story expansion. Check the region and platform as well as the name: the examples below have differently described DLC contents.
| Listing | Physical contents | DLC listed |
|---|---|---|
| US: PS4 Collector’s Edition, Best Buy SKU 6560575 | Base game, Aigis figure, artbook and soundtrack | A DLC Pack voucher; confirm the sets and code region on the specific box |
| Asia: PS5 Aigis Edition, SEGA catalogue | Base game, Aigis figure, 64-page printed artbook and a two-CD soundtrack | Persona 4 Golden Yasogami High Costume Set and Persona 4 Golden Persona Set |
The US contents come from Best Buy’s PS4 listing; the Asia contents come from SEGA’s regional catalogue. Neither example should be treated as the contents of every UK, Canadian or Australian box.
The collector’s name does not establish ownership of Episode Aigis. For a used box, confirm the disc platform, included physical items, and whether each DLC voucher is unused and valid for your account’s region. A figure and artbook do not compensate for a redeemed code if the DLC is part of your buying decision.
Nintendo Switch 2: distinguish the edition from the Premium DLC Pack
Nintendo Switch 2 has Standard, Digital Deluxe and Digital Premium editions. It also has a product called Persona 3 Reload – Premium DLC Pack. Despite the similar wording, that pack is not the Digital Premium game edition.
| Product | Includes Reload? | Main additions | Episode Aigis Pack? |
|---|---|---|---|
| Digital Premium Edition | Yes | Digital artbook, soundtrack and launch DLC | No |
| Premium DLC Pack | No | Digital artbook, soundtrack and launch DLC | No |
| DLC Pack | No | The seven launch costume, Persona and BGM sets | No |
| Episode Aigis -The Answer- Pack | No | Epilogue and associated extras | Yes |
SEGA’s Switch 2 catalog lists a 34-page digital artbook and 60-track soundtrack for its Deluxe and Premium editions. Do not carry the 64-page Steam or PlayStation artbook description over to this version.
For an existing Switch 2 Standard copy, the Premium DLC Pack adds digital art, music and launch extras. For the epilogue, choose the Episode Aigis Pack instead, or add it separately if you want both groups.
Is there a Persona 3 Reload Complete Edition?
The official Steam, PlayStation and SEGA Switch 2 listings covered here use Standard, Digital Deluxe and Digital Premium—not Complete Edition—as their game-edition names.
Check any “complete” retailer bundle against two requirements first: Reload base game + Episode Aigis expansion. Launch DLC, artbook and soundtrack are further optional extras.
