How to Get Protein in Persona 5 Royal
There are a huge number of consumables and power-ups forplayers to collect inPersona 5 Royal, but the three kinds of Protein are among the most useful.All Proteins restore 30% HPto an ally when used in battle, but using it outside of battle can help Joker get increased gains from his physical training.
The cheapest of the three is simply called Protein, and players can find an unlimited supply of it for ¥2,000 each at Rocinante Discount Store.
Moist Protein is slightly more effective, and costs ¥4,500 at the Next Ace Sports Shop inPersona 5 Royal’s Shibuya district. Unlike Protein, Moist Protein can only be bought once a day.
Finally, there is Imported Protein, which is also found at Next Ace Sports Shop, but costs ¥8,000 and only restocks once a month. Players can also buy Protein in cheap bundles from the Home Shopping Channel on May 1, July 3, and January 15.
How to Use Protein
Although Protein can be used inPersona 5 Royal’s battlesto restore 30% HP to an ally, it’s strongly recommended that players save it for training.
This can either be home training in Joker’s room, which will become available early in the first semester, or training in the Protein Lover’s Gym in Shibuya, which unlocks after the player reaches Rank 5 with the Chariot or Rank 8 with the Lovers Confidant.
Players will be given the option to use a Protein, and which to use, when they begin a training session. Here’s what each of the Proteins will add to any training session they are applied to:
Given that training uses up time that could be spent increasingPersona 5 Royal’s social statsor Confidants, players should always try and use Protein to maximize the effects.
Persona 5 Royalis available now on PS4. A PC, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and Xbox Game Pass release is scheduled for Jun 23, 2025.
