Walkthrough and Guide for the Month of December in Persona 5

Your December will be focused on maxing out your skills in mini-games and hanging out with your friends. There are some romantic choices you can make later in the month. You also have tests to study for.

December is also a good time to rank up the Strength Confidant. Be sure to at least have 300,000 yen or more to do this in one sitting. You can also use a Fusion Calculator for Persona that you missed.

You will explore a Palace this month. For the Palace’s full walkthrough, click here.
