Velvet Room is a recurring location in the Persona series. The room is a place that exists between dream and reality, mind and matter, and that only those who are bound by a contract can enter.[a]
It is typically hosted by Igor, along with one or more "Velvet Attendants." The characters serving as the attendants vary by game.
Gameplay

The Velvet Room serves as a place to fuse Personas, acting similarly to the Cathedral of Shadows in the Shin Megami Tensei series. Like the Cathedral of Shadows, the player cannot fuse Personas that are of a higher level than the protagonist's currnet level, although this restriction can be circumvented in Persona 5 by paying a fee, after reaching max rank with the Strength Confidant.
All party members that wield a Persona in the first three entries are able to fuse new Personas. However--only the protagonist, dubbed a "wild card", is able to do so in Persona 3, Persona 4, and Persona 5. Many games also include a Compendium, which allows the player to register Personas as well as later summon them at any time (at a fee).
Game Appearances
Megami Ibunroku Persona
The velvet room is a room found in places like the mall. The walls have deep blue curtains, the floors have a blue zig zag pattern. Nameless and Belladonna are seen with a piano playing Aria of the Soul. Later games have the theme play without an in universe musician playing. Unlike the games from Persona 3 onward, the whole party enters the velvet room and participates in fusion. Fusion is performed with the personas physically appearing, a giant tent lowering down onto both of them, commotion happens inside and the tent moves back up to reveal the new persona
Persona 2: Innocent Sin
Persona 2: Eternal Punishment
Persona 3
The velvet room appears as an elevator operation room. Igor sits on a lush blue couch with a rounded table in front of him with a blue table cloth.

In The Answer from Persona 3 FES, Aigis, as the protagonist enters the velvet room as its guest.
Persona 3 Reload
The Protagonist sits in a chair that looks like a harp, greatly resembling his Persona Orpheus. Unlike previous iterations of Persona 3, the Velvet Room has various different camera angles where the Protagonist can be seen more clearly.
When fusing Personas, Igor "shoots" the cards through Makoto's head, resulting in a new Persona.
Persona 4
The Velvet Room appears as a lavish blue limousine that drives through the fog with Margaret as the attendant. This appearance as shaped by the protagonist's anxiety towards the mystery. If one was to turn around and look at the driver's seat, there would be no one would be driving the limo, further making one feel more anxious.[1]

At the beginning of Arena Ultimax, an unrevealed person is shown visiting the Velvet Room and turning down the contract from Igor and Margaret. During Episode P4, Margaret pulls Yu Narukami into the Velvet Room and explains that Marie is keeping the townspeople safe during the P-1 Climax.
