List of Persona 4 Arena Characters

These are the characters that appear in Persona 4 Arena.

Playable Characters

 * *  Apart from having Izanagi and Pallas Athena as their standard Personas, Yu and Aigis also use Izanagi-no-Okami and Palladion if they successfully activate their Instant Kills. Whenever they use alternate palettes, the palette change will also affect Izanagi-no-Okami and Palladion. In palettes where the Persona's color scheme is different from its user's, Izanagi-no-Okami and Palladion depend on their hosts' color theme rather than their Persona's.

In addition, all characters have the option to wear glasses, even for characters that have never worn glasses on record: Teddie wears a bandit's mask, Aigis wears her visor from The Answer, Mitsuru wears sunglasses, Akihiko wears ski goggles, Elizabeth wears reading glasses, and Labrys and her Shadow lower their visors over their eyes.

Non-Playable Characters

 * Nanako Dojima
 * Ryotaro Dojima
 * Fuuka Yamagishi
 * Detective Kurosawa
 * Igor
 * Margaret
 * Unit #024
 * Malevolent Entity
 * Eerie Voice

General Teddie, seen in the beginning of the game and cover art, serves as the tournament's host. Rise is the default operator however the player can complete Score Attack with certain characters to unlock Aigis, Mitsuru, Teddie, Nanako, Fuuka and Yosuke as operators as well. Alternatively, they can be bought as DLC. Each playable character can replace the default male announcer for roll call by completing their respective Arcade Modes. Igor and Margaret have several lines at the Velvet Room-like character selection screen. Due to Arc System's business practices among other things, it was hinted that new characters and content might be added in the future as DLC. Viewing the official site's source code reveals a place holder for a "syuyaku", a possible alternate romanization of 主役 ('shuyaku'; "leading part", "leading actor") or 集約 ('shuuyaku'; "intensive", "collected", "summarized").

Along with being an operator, Nanako and Fuuka appear as a non-playable characters in the story along with Ryotaro Dojima.
