The game play of Persona 4 alternates between that of a traditional console role-playing game and of a simulation game. The protagonist of Persona 4 is a teenage boy, named and controlled by the player. The game takes place over the course of a traditional Japanese school year. Outside of key events, the Protagonist attends school, and can interact with other students and characters, spend time at part-time jobs to earn money, or engage in other activities. The player may also enter the Midnight Channel, an alternate reality where the game's dungeon-crawling game play occurs. Each day in Persona 4 is broken up into different periods of time, such as After School or Evening. Certain activites are limited to certain times of day. In addition, the ability to engage in certain activities is based on the day of the week, or the weather.
By spending time with people, the Protagonist forms Social Links. Social Links are friendships the Protagonist makes as the game progresses, each represented by one of the Major Arcana. When a Social Link is first formed, it starts at Rank 1, increasing over time as the Protagonist spends time with that person, until it reaches Rank 10. Social Links grant the player bonuses when creating new Personas in the Velvet Room.
Persona 4's timeline is driven by the disappearance of characters from the real world into the Midnight Channel. The player has a limited amount of time to rescue people who have disappeared, before they are killed and the game ends.
