Quick Links

Most Social Links in Persona 4 Golden have a deadline and can only be completed on certain days. If you miss these days, you could possibly miss maxing them out. This means you will need to be mindful of each deadline and ensure that each Social Link reaches the tenth rank with all 24 arcana.

There are a few benefits to completing every Social Link, as not only will you be rewarded with a powerful Persona, but you will also be able to fuse powerful Personas. Your progress also carries over to New Game Plus, meaning any missed Persona 4 Golden social links can be tried again in a future playthrough.

Persona 4 Golden specifically adds in January and February to help players do more after the main story. This is mainly to account for the inclusion of Marie and Hollow Forrest. Those who only played the original Persona 4 will no longer be limited to finishing everything in November or December.

Weather and Scheduling

All Social Link Deadlines in Persona 4 Golden

The deadline dates are for reaching the final “MAX” tenth rank. This means that players will also have to account for additional days if they also need to rank up several previous Persona 4 Golden social levels. Additionally, many social link characters are only around during certain days of the week, in the morning or evening, or during other events. For example, most outdoor social links will not happen when it rains. Party members will also become unavailable during investigation sequence days.
