Gameplay

Persona 5

Backstreets

The backstreets can be traveled freely in the afternoons whenever time is available, and can be explored at night with free time starting on Saturday, April 23rd. Multiple shops are in the area, including directly in the Backstreets and in the Takemi Medical Clinic.

Café Leblanc

Main article: Café Leblanc

The protagonist's new home, a small café hidden in the alleyways that specializes in coffee and curry. A number of activities for Confidants and social stats are available in the restaurant. Eventually, Leblanc also becomes the planning hideout of the Phantom Thieves.

Takemi Medical Clinic

Main article: Takemi Medical Clinic

This medical clinic sits on the backstreet between Café Leblanc and Sojiro Sakura's residence. The owner and sole physician-in-residence is Tae Takemi, a patron of Leblanc and the Death Confidant. She sells medicines useful for the Metaverse after her Confidant has been established, and some rank ups provide social stat points for Guts. See the main article for the list of purchasable items.

Batting Cages

The batting cages can be used to improve the Proficiency social stat and offer prizes during afternoon sessions for good performance.

Bathhouse

The bathhouse can be used in the evening to improve the Charm social stat by 3 points; on Sundays the stat bonus is increased by an additional 2 points for Charm while on rainy days the stat bonus is an additional 2 points for Guts.

Following invitation hangouts with various Confidants in Leblanc during the Summer break, an evening hangout in the Bathhouse can be chosen for additional Confidant points.

Laundromat

The laundry machines can be used, for a fee, to clean dirty equipment found in the Metaverse to obtain new armor for party members. Doing so causes time to pass.

Movie Theater

Main article: Movie Theater

The Yongen-Jaya theater unlocks after completing Mementos request "Who's Muscling in Yongen-Jaya". Movies are all references to real-life movies, and change every month. Watching a movie for the first time provides 5 points for one social stat.

Sojiro Sakura's Residence

The home of Café Leblanc's taciturn owner and his family. While not usually accessible, the house is visited multiple times in the Summer and later on for the Hermit Confidant.
