Approximately 50 design proposals for the logo were created before the team settled on the final design.

Of course, we considered the inclusion of the female protagonist alongside “Episode Aigis,” but the more we delved into it, the more hopeless it seemed… The development time and costs would likely be two to three times that of “Episode Aigis,” making it challenging to entrust entirely to external companies and exceeding our capabilities. Even if P3R and the “Expansion Pass” were to exceed our sales expectations and resolve the cost issues, the release would still be far off. Additionally, the expectation is also that we make completely new games, not just remakes, so we need to allocate limited development resources accordingly. I deeply apologize to the fans who have supported us for a long time, but we are happy that P3R has been released and that “Episode Aigis” will be as well, and that many are interested in playing those. This would be the moment if we could do it, so I’m very sorry to the fans, but I don’t think there’s any possibility to make it happen in the future either." |translquote= |title= |publ= |publisher=Persona Central |page= |url= [https://personacentral.com/p3r-episode-aigis-interview/ Persona 3 Reload Episode Aigis Developer Interview, Discusses Additional Content]|archive=[https://web.archive.org/web/20240324000345/https://personacentral.com/p3r-episode-aigis-interview/ P3R Episode Aegis Interview Archive] |published=March 22, 2024 |retrieved= March 23, 2024|site= |type= }}</ref> | |||
