Unlocking the Joker Fight in Episode Aigis

To unlock the Joker challenge fight in Episode Aigis, you’ll first need to defeat the Reaper. You can do this by accepting Elizabeth’s request to bring her a Bloody Button, then trigger the Reaper fight while you’re in the Abyss of Time. To summon the Reaper, simply spend more than 10 minutes on any particular floor in the Abyss of Time, and wait for it to come to you.

After defeating the Reaper and completing the Bloody Button quest for Elizabeth, you’ll unlock a new request from her that tasks you with exploring the Monad Chambers and defeating the bosses there. Joker will be the final boss waiting for you at the bottom of the Monad Chambers.

Keep in mind that this is one of the toughest superbosses we’ve ever encountered in the entire Persona and Shin Megami Tensei series — rivaling even Elizabeth herself — and you’ll need to make sure your gear is all set up properly before attempting it. Just like the Elizabeth fight, there are rules you need to follow, such as dealing a set amount of damage within a number of turns, but not too much damage as that will cause him to instakill your party.

I’d recommend leaving Joker for the end of the DLC, once your party has been leveled up enough to be able to fuse stronger Personas and craft better equipment.

That’s everything we know about unlocking the Joker fight in Episode Aigis so far. Be sure to search up The Escapist for more tips and information on the game, including a rundown of all the floors in the Abyss of Time and all boss weaknesses.
