Persona 5Royalexpands on the original game in a number of meaningful ways, helping to turn what’s already a truly fantastic title into one ofthe best JRPGs in recent memory. One standout improvement can be seen through the way that Joker interacts with his confidants, with players now able to giveP5Rgifts to both male and female characters to help boost their bond.
Choosing the right gift can help deepen Joker’s relationship with a confidant, unlocking new scenes and story moments along the way. Maxing out a confidant also unlocks their ultimate Persona, which is why finding the best gifts is so important.

The Best Persona 5 Royal Gifts for Every Confidant
Trying to decide what to do with all of theP5Rgifts can be tricky, particularly with certain characters only liking a handful of things. For example, it makes more sense to give the Star Mirror to Chihaya than to Ann, as there are eight gifts that they could give to Ann to gain a +3 boost, but only three that they could give to Chihaya. Similarly, as Yusuke is the only person to gain a +3 boost from a Watercolor Postcard, players should give him one of those before giving him a gift that would work well with one of theotherP5Rconfidants.
The table below should make it much easier to spot these kinds of conflicts, although players will also need to factor pricing into their decisions, as some of the gifts inPersona 5 Royalare a lot more expensive than others and thus offer poor value for money. This is especially true of the electronic items from Akindo, which players should only ever buy if they’re really struggling to raise a bond before a deadline.
