Persona 4


The protagonist moves to the peaceful, rural town of Inaba, a city that spreads across the foot of the Yasogami hills. Shortly after the protagonist moves to Inaba, bizzare murders begin to occut within the town. On foggy mornings, corpses begin to appear one after another hanging from TV antennas and buildings, and a dark shadow looms over the peaceful rural town. Rumors of the Midnight Channel begin to spread throughout Yasogami High School... "They say your soulmate will appear if you stare into a television set on a rainy night..."
The protagonist and his friends decide to test this rumor out on a whim...

Which Version Should I Play?

You can play Persona 4 Golden on Steam, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and Playstation Vita. There is an argument to be made for playing the original Persona 4 on Playstation 2 or Playstation 3 via the PS Store, so try it out if you want.

Persona 4 FAQ

  • You can max social links in your first run without a guide. Prioritize less avaliable social links over more accessible ones. Also, don't bother spending free time with characters who already get a lot of social link points through events, but still advance their social links when possible. Here are some SLs to take note of:
    • High Priority or Hard
      • [Temperance] Eri, daytime SL and yet no special events to add SL points as well as easy to forget about
      • [Death] Old Lady, activated on Devil 4, only avaliable on Sundays and holidays but will always rank up
      • [Jester] Adachi (P4G), avaliable at inconsistent times, sometimes on rainy days. Max doable rank is 6.
    • Low Priority or Easy
      • [Magician] Yosuke, many special events, avaliable during breaks
      • [Priestess] Yukiko, many special events, avaliable during breaks
      • [Chariot] Chie, too much special events, avaliable during breaks, absolute lowest daytime priority
      • [Hermit] Fox, actual social link event can be done in the rain. Try to finish before Janurary for ease.
      • [Strength] Kou/Daisuke, many days to attend to the social link
      • [Sun] Yumi/Ayane, one of the few social links that can be done on rainy days
      • All nighttime SLs, plenty of time to do them. Don't rush.
    • Other
      • [Moon] Ai, save before each event in case
      • [Aeon] Marie (P4G), need rank 10 to unlock an extra dungeon. December is the last month to do so.
  • In December, the schedules of SL members becomes inconsistent. The Investigation Team related SLs will become less avaliable while Marie will be extremely more avaliable making it easy to do a lot of the Aeon rank up work this month. Clearing the December dungeon will skip to the end of the month days-wise, so try to do it on the 22nd so you can clear it and still get the Christmas date event.
  • The aim of a perfect SL run is to have SL events running almost each day. You should be spending almost no free time with anyone but the non-school Social Links. If you cannot advance a SL, go to another one or use small talk at night time or fortunes to get SL points. Or, increase your social stats and await for special events to give the sufficient SL points you need to continue Social Linking.
  • You won't need a matching Persona for the early ranks of a social link, as correct answers will level them sufficiently or they are designed so you have to obtain non-in-SL event points anyway.
  • If you need to grind, Gold Hands give a lot of EXP.
  • Mana management tips
    • Buy TaP sodas from one of the vending machines; you can buy five per week (replenishes on Monday).
    • At level 17, you can fuse a Sarasvati with Invigorate 2.
    • If you are cheap and patient, you can grind on weak enemies for Cup cards (P4G).
  • Only go into dungeons on days without a daytime or nighttime social link. Try to complete each in one day.
  • On rainy days, you can visit Aiya to get a large social stat increase.
  • Save scooter explorations for rainy days. (P4G)
  • When trying to catch the Guardians, cast and recast until you get a giant, splashing ripple. If you have to ask whether you've got the correct ripple or not, it's not.
