Quick Links
Now that you’ve gotten your first boss battle out of the way against Wrathful Book and conquered the Malebolge door inPersona 3 Reload: Episode Aigis -The Answer-, you’re onto the next section of the Abyss of Time, the second door to a realm called Cocytus.
Hit Paulownia Mall to grab some gear for your new and returning teammates before diving into this section of the Desert of Doors. Another section with only one door guardian fight to handle about halfway through, the Cocytus realm in Episode Aigis is your chance to dive back into P3R as you know it.
Cocytus Overview
Plenty of thingsbegin to return to normalas you venture into Cocytus in Persona 3 Reload: Episode Aigis. For starters, you’ll haveJunpei and Koromaru rejoin the teamonce you’re ready to start exploring the new area, andthey’ll be appropriately leveled for the point at which they’re jumping back in, jumping onto your team atlevel 31.
Not only do you have the two returning teammates to play with as you mess with your team configuration to see what works best for you and your playstyle, inside of Cocytus, you’ll find plenty of familiar features from the base game of Persona 3 Reload. You’ll find the return of two P3R-exclusive features once you’ve arrived in Cocytus, including:
Outside these new features, you’ll find Cocytus much like the previous area of Malebolge, with Shadows to fight, loot to grab, and plenty of treasure chests along the way. The Cocytus area is closely tied with theYabbashah block of Tartarusin the base game in that it brings the same features into the fold to expand your game now that you’ve gotten the hang of things.
Enemies In Cocytus
You’re definitely no stranger by now to how important it is to battle your way through these winding hallways as you progress, sincecombat is how you level upfor the big fights ahead. In the table below, you’ll find a full list of Shadows you may encounter in the Cocytus area in the Desert of Doors.

Like back in Malebolge, you’ve got a boss battle waiting for you in the Cocytus door of Persona 3 Reload: Episode Aigis. You’ll find the battle onCocytus B9, with the same teleporter back to the Desert of Doors on B8 if you need to regroup and/or save the game before triggering it. Once you venture down, you’ll be up againstCowardly Mayaand its two support Shadows.
Defeating Cowardly Maya brings you into the very first of many memories specific to one member of SEES, beginning with Ken. Viewing this cutscene is the formal end of the Cocytus, triggering the trophy"The Vengeful One"added with the Episode Aigis DLC and unlocking the next block in the Desert of Doors, Caina.
