Atlus is returning to Persona 3 with an updated remake of the 2006 classic. With that, the cast has changed with some very promising up-and-comers in the VA industry. Here’s all the voices you’ll hear in Persona 3 Reload.
This list will cover all currently-revealed characters, both main and side, that have a voice actor attached. While Ryoji has been revealed, no actor is currently attached to the role. Therefore, the list will be updated to reflect the change when the news arrives. Also, I’ll mainly be referring to the English actors, but I’ll include the Japanese actors in the list.
(When the Moon’s) Reaching Stars
While the original had an iconic lineup of famed VAs, the cast of Persona 3 Reload is filled to the brim with promising talent. You’ll find voices from Street Fighter VI, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, and even Fairly OddParents for those 2000s Nickelodeon kids like me. I’ve separated the cast between main and supporting to remove some clutter. Nevertheless, here is the confirmed cast of Persona 3 Reload:

What are these voice actors known for?
In terms of the main cast, the actors all have quite a large range. Zeno Robinson, who plays Junpei Iori, voiced the secondary protagonist Goh in the Pokemon Journeys series. Dawn M. Bennett, the voice for Aigis, also shares a Pokemon connection, giving life to Marnie in Pokemon: Twilight Wings.
Meanwhile, Yukari actress Heather Gonzales voiced the sage Mineru in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. The actors for Ken and Shinjiro, Justine Lee and Justice Slocum, respectively, are newcomers in the industry, so this will be their first big project. Finally, Aleks Le, the protagonist (Makoto Yuki), is a rising star in the VA world, having played Luke in Street Fighter VI, Sonon in Final Fantasy VII Remake: Intergrade, and Zenitsu in Demon Slayer.
Speaking of Final Fantasy VII Remake/Intergrade, there are a handful of actors who star in named roles and also appear in Persona 3 Reload. For example, Suzie Yeung (Fuuka Yamagishi) plays future party member Yuffie while Alejandro Saab (Akihiko Sanada) voices gym fiend Jules. Also, Daman Mills (Tayaka) lent his chords to Persona 5 had some connections with its cast, specifically Max Mittleman (Ryuji Sakamoto) as party member Red XIII.
For side characters, we have some decent catches. For those eagle-eyed readers and Persona 3 fans, you’ll recognize Tara Platt’s name immediately. The actress, who originally played Mitsuru Kirijo, will now voice Velvet Room assistant Elizabeth. Acting legend Patrick Seitz, known for Goku in Dragon Ball, trades in the heroics to play the sleazeball, Tanaka. Finally, Susanne Blakeslee, who plays book store owner Mitsuku Kitamura, is the actress behind Wanda from The Fairly OddParents. It’s a fun mix of actors and I can’t wait to hear more of them.
Our very own Timothy Monbleau got to play Persona 3 Reload in August and said the game felt “polished to an absolute shine.” As one of my RPGs to look out for, Persona 3 Reload looks to be a force to be reckoned with. The game launches on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox Game Pass, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S on February 2, 2024.
