Persona 3 Reload: Every arcade game schedule & stat boost

The arcade games in Persona 3 Reload are one of the fastest ways for players to boost their Social Stats. Here’s the schedule and stat effect for every arcade game.

Stats are an essential part of every mechanic in Persona 3 Reload, the intricate system of Character, Persona, and Social Stats and the webs they weave through story and gameplay are a defining part of the Persona series. And Persona 3 Reload is no different.

While player’s stats level up passively as they play through the story, there are also activities available during the protagonist’s free time which can provide many stats with a solid boost. One of the quickest and easiest of which is playing the arcade games available at Game Parade, in the Paulownia Mall. Although, it does cost yen to play them.

Arcade games can provide players with boosts to both their Social Stats; Academics, Charm, and Courage, and to three of their Persona Stats too. Agility, Magic, and Strength. The only game that won’t help with increasing stat levels is the Crane Game located outside the arcade.

While playing this arcade game isn’t going to raise any Social or Persona Stats, players can win useful prizes from it. Plus, time won’t pass while playing the Crane Game, so it’s worth knocking out a few rounds when visiting the arcade. Game Parade is open every day, and every evening, too. Here’s every arcade game’s schedule at Game Parade, as well as which stats they’ll help raise.

Game Parade can be found on the east side of Paulownia Mall.
