All vending machine locations in Persona 3 Reload

Persona 3 Reload has several places offering restorative items, with Paulownia Mall’s Aohige Pharmacy being the primary place to stock up. Although their items are not nearly as useful, Tatsumi Port Island also features many vending machines scattered throughout. Many are just out of reach from the player’s walkable area, but just as many are accessible.

While the drinks they dispense aren’t that useful beyond P3R‘s opening hours, it’s handy knowing where the vending machines are for a sidequest. Velvet Room attendant Elizabeth has many requests, including wanting to try a dozen different soft drinks. It also just so happens that a dozen different soft drinks are scattered across all the vending machines.

How to complete request 9: “I’d like to try all kinds of drinks.”

Completing Elizabeth’s request boils down to bringing her every kind of drink from the vending machines. All are relatively straightforward outside the machine located in Iwatodai Station. Getting access to every drink there requires obtaining the Iwatodai Forum Note from the Suspicious Man in Club Escapade.

Beyond that, here’s where to find every vending machine in Persona 3 Reload:

• Right side of dorm’s second-floor common room
• Back of dorm’s third-floor common room
• Third-floor of Iwatodai Strip Mall, next to the Net Cafe
• To the left of Screen Shot at Port Island Station
• Right side of the stairs at Iwatodai Station

Buy every drink at each vending machine you come across. If any stocks a drink already in your inventory, you don’t need to buy it again.

Expenses are also of little concern since each drink costs around 150-300 yen. You will lose a couple thousand which won’t mean much even in Persona 3 Reload‘s early game.

Once you have 12 different soft drinks, hand them to Elizabeth. She’ll graciously accept them and will reward you with a Media skill card.

It might not be much at this point in the game. You will probably already have a couple of personas with the Media skill. If you don’t, this is a nice way to grant yourself some party-wide healing and not have to only rely on Yukari.
