Test Cutscenes

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

In the remaster, a folder under event titled e900 contains test and early drafts of cutscenes. Some don't play normally as some effects, animations, models, etc. are missing internally.

Note: Most of these scenes were restored using existing assets of close proximity and/or unused content from the original Persona 5.
