This is a sub-page of Persona 5/Unused Cutscenes.

Prologue

e100_003

A cutscene intended for the beginning of the game where Joker runs from the Police in Niijima's Palace, which implies there would have been an additional section of gameplay after the cutscene where Joker smashes through the window. The text for the cutscene was never translated, although the dialogue was dubbed.

e100_004

Another cutscene intended for the beginning of the game, featuring Joker firing his gun into the air to attract the police. Joker is floating in the air for some reason. Untranslated subtitles for dialogue appear on-screen, but other than the sound of police sirens, there are no other sound effects or voice clips.

[Mysterious Voice]
This story is a work of fiction.
Similarities between characters or events to persons living or dead in your world are purely coincidental.
Only those who have agreed to the above have the privilege of partaking in this game.

Don't agree

[Mysterious Voice]
...I have witnessed your statement.
Well then, it is time for you to enjoy this game to your heart's content...

[Mysterious Voice]
...I see.
Everything that happens from here on is real... Is that your cognition of this?
...Then unfortunately, I cannot allow you to partake of this game.
I must ask that you leave...

[Mysterious Voice]
The world is not as it should be. It's filled with distortion, and "ruin" can no longer be avoided.
It is said that man has the power to resist even the most desperate of situations.
Those who oppose fate and desire change... From time to time, they were referred to as Tricksters.
You are the Trickster... Now is the time rise against the abyss of distortion.

It's Igor's contract in text form with no visuals, but uses Igor's voicelines of the statement. The scene starts on with him saying "The contract has been sealed.", but the text reads "...I have witnessed your statement."

e104_002

A brief scene of the protagonist walking out of the subway in an unused Yongen-Jaya location. The cutscene seems unfinished due to seeing the boundary and the protagonist floating above supposed stairs.

Kamoshida Arc

e118_002

A cutscene taking place during the protagonist and Ryuji's first escape from Kamoshida's palace. The students overheard something fell and it was a vent cover (They escaped via ventilation shaft in the metaverse). Kamoshida dismisses everyone and takes a look and then notices an out-of-place school bag next to the vent.

e119_002

An unused scene of the protagonist and Ryuji first escaping Kamoshida's palace. The scene is unfinished due to no sound and them spawning in the middle of the field's geometry after their escape.

e125_001

A cutscene with no dialogue of the protagonist entering LeBlanc as Sae is leaving. The protagonist does work and Sojiro gets a call and leaves, then he closes up shop.

This scene did had dialogue, for a different scene entirely, later found in Persona 5 Royal's 2022 Remaster.

e126_001

A brief, untranslated cutscene of Principal Kobayakawa and Kamoshida talking to each other in the faculty room.

e129_201

Morgana
Isn't this place your school? Doesn't any of this look familiar to you?

Ryuji
You mean in this castle? Hell no.

Morgana
Then, let's go somewhere that'll be easier to tell.
It'd be troublesome if you two get exhausted along the way too.

This cutscene has no visuals. Ryuji doesn't recognize the school from inside the palace, so Morgana will take him and the protagonist to somewhere easier to tell; this was probably intended as part of the introduction to safe rooms. In-game, the last line goes out of the text box.

e129_401

Morgana
What happened earlier...?

Ryuji
You mean that business about the new Persona?
Let's just say he's "special" and leave it at that.
C'mon, let's go.

This cutscene has no visuals. This would happen after Joker first gets an additional persona. This scene is voiced, although the lines are different.

e141_101

Sojiro asking the protagonist about group dating.

e152_201

The protagonist, Ryuji, and Morgana getting stuff needed to infiltrate Kamoshida's palace. Morgana comments on Ryuji knowing about Iwai's airsoft shop. Ryuji then comments that they also need to source healing items. Morgana finally asks who's going take him in so that they can stay in contact. Unbeknownst to them, Ann is spying on them. Text not translated but dialogue is dubbed.

e154_001

A cutscene with no dialogue of the protagonist getting ready for work in LeBlanc. Sae enters the cafe and he finishes.

This scene did had dialogue, as it was later found in Persona 5 Royal's 2022 Remaster.

e155_001

A cutscene of the protagonist, Ryuji, and Morgana getting ready to go to school, preparing to go to Kamoshida's Palace. Ann is also spying on them.

e160_001

Meant to take place after forming a Confidant with Morgana, a cutscene of Igor telling the protagonist that he met another companion and curious if they're of this world.

e160_101

A cutscene of Sojiro telling the protagonist of part-time jobs and where to look for them. In-game, Ryuji and Ann tell you about them instead.

e161_001

A cutscene of the group on the rooftop, with Morgana instructing them how to infiltrate and send a calling card; He even quizzes the player. It looked like Morgana would lay down all the steps of infiltrating a Palace all in one cutscene instead of telling them gradually as the story goes on.

e163_101

A cutscene of the protagonist and Ann on break. Ryuji messages the two that now's a good time to leave.

e179_001

An early scene of Makoto meeting up with the principal. The scene plays out just like in the final, except it's in the school faculty room.

Madarame Arc

e188_901

An unfinished cutscene at the school. Camera is out of bounds.

e189_099

An alternate version of the start of Mishima's confidant. The scene uses a different flash-forward transition and Igor is there explaining that the protagonist had made a new contract and to use that bond he made to gather the voices of those who yearn for help. This scene has no music or voice clips.

e193_106

The protagonist, Ann, Ryuji, and Morgana start heading to Madarame's house and need to take the train first.

e217_011

The SIU director contacting someone about the Phantom Thieves and their methods, which he connected that they must've used the Metaverse.
