This will be addressed in a future update.

This will be addressed in a future update.

• Greedy Shadows may not appear in Tartarus under certain conditions.

 

• Some conversation scenes in Chapter 16 of Met by Moonlight: Strike like Lightning do not play correctly under certain conditions.

During the boss battle, if you proceed to the next phase before additional enemies are summoned, the story sequence that is supposed to occur during battle may not play.

Please replay this part if the issue occurs.

 

• In past P3R events, selecting Tartarus may cause incorrect information to be displayed and the menu to function incorrectly.

Even when Tartarus has not been unlocked, it may appear as though it has been, and selecting YES may cause the menu to function incorrectly.

Tartarus is unlocked by clearing Episode 7 of the past Met by Moonlight: Luminous Island event and completing the Luminous Island mission.

This will be addressed in a future update.

• In Main Story Chapter 3: Unconditional Love Phase 3, using the Skip function may cause the screen to temporarily fade to black.

• In Main Story Chapter 3: Unconditional Love, the mission guide may not work properly in Katayama's Palace.
An issue has occurred where, even after meeting the conditions, the "!" mark does not proceed to the next step in the operation sequence.
We have confirmed that the above issue can be fixed by restarting the game.

 

(Updated Oct 17, 2025)
• The effects of the Persona Kohryu's trait "Auspicious Sign" do not always trigger correctly
When the Persona Kohryu is assigned to the Protagonist's 2nd or 3rd Persona slot, the Overclock 0 effect will be triggered, regardless of the current Overclock status.
The effects will be correctly reflected if you change your Persona to Kohryu once during battle, or if you assign Kohryu to the Protagonist's 1st Persona slot.

This will be fixed at a later date.
