Persona 3 Reload Theurgy Attacks

What are Theurgy Abilities

Persona 3 Reload introduces Theurgy Abilities, a unique mechanic inspired by Persona 5 Royal’s Showtime system. These powerful, character-specific ultimate skills are unlocked later in the game. Each member of the S.E.E.S. team possesses a distinct Theurgy ability, requiring specific actions or conditions to charge.

Upon unlocking, Theurgy meters appear on the right side of the screen. These meters fill up during combat or through particular actions. Once the meter is full, the character can unleash their Theurgy attack.

How to Unlock Theurgy Abilities

Theurgy abilities are unlocked through normal gameplay progression. There are no special actions or tasks beyond advancing the story.
