What are Ultimate Personas in Persona 3 Reload?

Before we get into how to unlock each one, let’s talk about what ultimate Personas actually are. There are two categories of ultimate Personas in Persona 3 Reload: the ones you unlock through maxing out a Social Link, and the ones that evolve from your teammates’ base Persona.

There is a trophy and achievement associated with ultimate Personas in this game, and that one is specifically tied to your teammates’ Personas. The good news is that this trophy cannot be missed, and will be unlocked automatically on 12/30, towards the end of the game, assuming you decided to go for the true ending.

Only the following teammates have ultimate Personas:

  • Junpei Iori (Trismegistus)
  • Akihiko Sanada (Caesar)
  • Mitsuru Kirijo (Artemesia)
  • Yukari Takeba (Isis)
  • Ken Amada (Kala-Nemi)
  • Aigis (Athena)

All of their ultimate Personas will get awakened as part of the main story, so just stay the course and you’ll get them all eventually. None of them are tied to the new Linked Episodes, so you can rest assured that you won’t miss out on these.

On the flipside, there are also 22 ultimate Personas you can unlock by maxing out a Social Link. Once you’ve maxed a Social Link, you’ll unlock the ability to fuse a new Persona at the Velvet Room. Do note that some of the ultimates can be fused via regular fusion, but you need to have the respective Social Link maxed out or it won’t appear as a possible result.

Listed below are all of the ultimate Personas, along with their associated Social Links:
