'The Answer' is coming to Persona 3 Reload in the Expansion Pass

SEGA and Atlus recently announced the Persona 3 Reload Expansion Pass which will finally add “The Answer” from FES.

This new expansion pass will come in three waves, with each featuring a bevy of new content. The first two waves feature new background music and costumes, respectively. For most fans though, the highlight is no doubt the third wave which will feature a remade “The Answer” which is an epilogue originally released as part of Persona 3 FES.
