Confidant List and Recruitment Guide in Persona 5 Royal
Over the course of Persona 5 Royal, the Protagonist can unlock a Social Link or Confidant belonging to an Arcana. As the player advances a Confidant’s level, it will give access to its unique confidant skills. With female confidants, spending time with them is insufficient to raise their rank. To guarantee that they will rank up when you spend time with them again, you must buy and give them gift items.
Persona 5 Royal Female Confidant Gift List and Guide
Note that raising the Confidant level of female characters will unlock a romantic relationship with them, allowing you to view special events. It is even possible to achieve a romantic state with all possible partners during a playthrough which results in a unique and humorous special event.
List of Confidants
A list of every Confidant in the game, along with information about their availability, can be found below. Click on a Confidant to go to their guide page for information on how to increase their level, unlockable skills, and special events.
*Takuto Maruki and Kasumi Yoshizawa are Confidant exclusives to Persona 5 Royal only.

Fr anyone who is confused Kasumi becomes available on 5/30 not 5/3
Guessing that they hit the “-” key instead of “0” when making the guide as they are right next to each other.
Does anyone know what The World arcana does?
Uh ummm… being the main character?
absolutley nothing
Just a suggestion add max confidant persona column
Just a suggestion: Alongside the unlock date you should have a column noting whether or not a confidant becomes unavailable for an extended time or must be maxed by a certain date. It could help with prioritization for those not wanting to miss out on a certain character or not wanting to rigidly follow a guide.
i second this
I second this!! It’s impossible keeping 80 tabs open of each confidant and having to go back and forth to make sure you’re not missing anything 🙁
i also second this
You should update with what requirements are needed to unlock (charm for Hifumi, Guts for Iwai, etc.), I find myself worried I don’t know if I’m building my stats right!!
You guys removed Takemi’s Confidant Guide link from the side list.
Thanks for the reminder. Takemi is already added 🙂
You guys should put which stat you need for each character. Like for ann, you need certain level of kindness to unlock more stuff
you guys removed Takemi’s Confidant Guide link from the side list
You got 2 things wrong. Sojiro and Hifumi are night, not afternoon.
Already updated 🙂
This game is the SHIT. Gonna max some confidants.
