Looking for a girlfriend in Persona 3 Reload? The road to true love can be a long one, but in this Persona 3 Reload guide, we're going to detail all of the game's romance options and how you can go about unlocking them.

But before we begin, it should be noted that the romance system in Persona 3 Reload has been overhauled. It's not the same system that you'll find in Persona 3, Persona 3 FES, or Persona 3 Portable, and is much more in line with the system that Persona 5 introduced.

Getting a girlfriend in Persona 3 Reload requires the advanced development of that character's Social Link. When the Social Link Rank is high enough, you'll be given the opportunity to enter a romantic relationship with that girl.

Having a girlfriend changes some scenes and dialogue during the game.
