Persona5: The Phantom X Palace Guide — Dungeon Walkthrough
Updated 2026-06-03
Palaces in Persona5: The Phantom X are sprawling dungeons filled with puzzles, loot, and challenging bosses. This guide covers all 7 palaces available as of Version 4.0, with tips for each one.
Palace 1: The School of Pride
The first palace is a tutorial run — straightforward, short, and easy. Take your time to learn stealth mechanics and lockpicking. Hidden chests contain early Persona fusion materials. The boss is a Shadow Teacher weak to Fire — bring Ann (given for free) and you will breeze through.
| Palace | Theme | Floors | Boss Weakness |
|---|---|---|---|
| School of Pride | Corrupt education | 3 | Fire |
| Hospital of Greed | Medical corruption | 4 | Ice |
| Bank of Envy | Corporate greed | 5 | Electric |
| Studio of Sloth | Media manipulation | 5 | Wind |
| Gallery of Lust | Art world corruption | 6 | Psy |
| Prison of Wrath | Justice system abuse | 6 | Nuclear |
| Museum of Vanity | Art and ego | 7 | Dark / Void |
Palace Tips
Always bring a party that covers the boss's weakness. Palaces 3 and 4 have a steep difficulty spike — make sure your Personas are fused to the right level. Use the safe rooms (save points) as fast travel hubs. And do not rush: exploring every room yields crafting materials, money, and sometimes rare Persona cards.
FAQ
- Can I return to a palace after clearing it?
- Yes, for farming. The enemies respawn and loot chests reset weekly.
- What is the hardest palace?
- Museum of Vanity (Palace 7) by far. Its stealth sections are punishing and the boss has 3 phases.
- Is there a time limit like in P5?
- No. Take as many in-game days as you need. The calendar system is much looser.
