This article is about the means of commute. For the activity, see Training. |
The train is a game mechanic in Persona 5 and Persona 5 Royal.
Overview[]
Persona 5 / Royal[]
Traveling & Fees[]
The train system allows the protagonist to travel around numerous locations in Tokyo. When directly traveling to a different location, he will have to pay a small fare each time he switches between a different area outside of Yongen-Jaya, Shibuya and Aoyama-Itchome due to the limitations of his transit pass. Additionally, when returning back within this scope, he'll have to pay again. For example, going to Shinjuku will cost ¥190: returning back to Shibuya will cost an additional ¥190, but going to Ichigaya instead will cost ¥200. Returning to Shibuya from Ichigaya will cost ¥200 instead.
Fares are only applied when directly traveling to other locations on the map. For example, accepting an invitation to spend time with a Confidant will not make the protagonist pay a fare when quick-spawning to their location. The only exceptions are when personally inviting Confidants to specific hangout spots, in which case a fare will be applied once.

If the protagonist is unable to pay the train fare to return back home at Yongen-Jaya, Morgana will use his secret savings to help him cover the fare.
Free Seats[]
"Ah, we were able to grab a seat for ourselves! And you have a book you haven't finished yet...! Now, this is nice. Why don't you read that book until we get there?"
On certain days, the protagonist will be able to take a free seat on his commute to school. On these occasions, he'll be able to read a book. These events serve as an additional time slot, separate from the usual Daytime or Evening periods. The protagonist may choose not to read anything and skip the event at any time.
The dates the protagonist takes a seat differ between Persona 5 and Persona 5 Royal.
The ability to find free seats is first demonstrated on April 16th, but the protagonist cannot read at that time.
