Persona 3 Reload | How Does Rewind Work?

Ah, the joy of diving into Persona 3 Reload! Let me spill the beans on a game-changer – the Rewind button, a sneaky feature that can be a lifesaver.

What is Rewind in Persona 3 Reload?

So, imagine this: you’re knee-deep in the labyrinth of Persona 3 Reload, and oops, a wrong move! Enter Rewind, your time-traveling buddy in this gaming odyssey.

Rewind is the fresh kid on the block, allowing you to hop back to an older save file. It’s like a safety net, catching those slip-ups and letting you redo your choices. Head to the game menu, hit pause, navigate to System, and there it is – Rewind. You get a lineup of your last five save points to pick from, like your own time-turner.

In my run, I hit Rewind on the evening of 5/17, and bam, I could stroll back to any of my last five saves. Sure, they might be old news, but they’re there, patiently waiting to correct my gaming missteps. I usually save twice a day – afternoons and nights – so I couldn’t jump too far back. But, hey, if I last saved on 5/11, I could roll back to that golden day.

Now, here’s the catch – once you Rewind, all the save states beyond that point vanish into the digital abyss. If I rewind to 5/16, my 5/17 files bite the dust, but I can still leap to 5/15. It’s like a gaming time machine, but with a few quirks.

But fear not, using Rewind won’t wipe your main save file. You can Rewind to 5/15, then casually load back to 5/17 whenever you please. Each save file dances to its own tune with different save states, making it a nifty tool in your gaming arsenal.

Should You Use Rewind in Persona 3 Reload?

The big question – when to hit that Rewind button? Think of it as your gaming emergency exit. If you’ve underestimated the Full Moon boss or need that extra Academics boost before a test, cue the Rewind.

Now, it’s not an everyday tool. Most hiccups can be smoothed out with your regular save files. I only pulled the Rewind card late in the game when I thought, “Hey, leveling up another Social Link now would be way cooler than just meeting Yuko for points.”

As long as you sprinkle a few save files at different moments, you won’t find yourself backed into a corner. With 15 slots at your disposal, it’s like having your own gaming safety net. So, should you use Rewind? Keep it in your back pocket for those “oh no” moments, but don’t let it steal the spotlight from your trusty save files.
