DVDs are items in Persona 5.
Appearances[edit | edit source]
Overview[edit | edit source]
The protagonist can rent DVDs at Rental Shop Scarlet at Shibuya Central Street, having to pay a small fee for each rent. The protagonist needs to have a TV in their attic in order to watch them. All DVDs require two time slots to be finished. Finishing the films will reward them with 2 or 3 points of a specific Social Stat, with the exception of Knowledge.
The protagonist needs to return each separate DVD 7 days after its renting. If the protagonist returns a movie late, they will be charged with additional fees.
One strategy to avoid additional fees is to watch them during missions, as the protagonist is almost always free during that time. Otherwise, it is recommended to watch them as early as possible. Paying attention to story cues can help as well, as school and the Phantom Thieves' agenda might help forecast when and for how long they'll be busy.

Persona 5 Royal[edit | edit source]
In Persona 5 Royal, the rental system has been replaced: the protagonist now has to pay for an annual subscription, with the price of ¥4,800. Doing so will grant them access to all the DVDs for the rest of the game. In addition, the availability dates for the original DVDs has been shifted, and each DVD can only give 2 points.
If the protagonist reads one of the new Royal-exclusive books, they'll gain a bonus stat point when watching DVDs.
