Welcome to the Persona 5 Strikers Guide for all the Requests and their locations. Requests are Side Quests you will either receive automatically or by getting them from your Friends. Trophies want you to finish 50 of them as well as all the Requests for your friends, but don’t let the game fool you. You will actually have to finish most of them since some Requests unlock new Bond Skill Levels or new Personas you will need to fuse for the 100% Compendium. So you might as well do all of them and this guide will tell you where and how.
The Requests in Black you will receive automatically and those in Red you will have to trigger yourself by talking to your friends, those are needed for the What are Friends For? Trophy.
You might receive some of the Requests a day earlier or a day later than the guide suggests, since the date of receipt can vary depending on how you played in the Jails. What this means is: you can do them in one or multiple visits, some of the Requests may unlock after a certain progress has been made in a Jail, but if you do them in one go you will receive it on the next day instead. Keep that in mind before panicking a particular request didn’t unlock.
For the Locations of the Mona Boxes and Strong Enemy Locations check: Persona 5 Strikers – Mona Desire Boxes, Dire Shadows, Strong Enemies Locations.

That’s all of the Requests (Side Quests) in Persona 5 Strikers. Be sure to check the other guides as well: Persona 5 Strikers Guides.
Roland says
So all the black ones are unmissable and can be completed any time?
Metta says
Red are the ones that are missable as they involve travelling to the city and cannot be revisited. Black are the ones that you can revisit as they are jail requests. Any requests in red are the ones where you need to speak to your friends and complete BEFORE visiting the next destination.
omakez says
August 17th – Beachside Blast – Sapporo Jail – Talk to Makoto on the beach, the request wants you to buy a watermelon from one of the shop in Okinawa as well as to defeat 10 Jack Frost as Makoto
hey, so ive buy the watermelon then i go to the jail and kill the jackk frost and dont count for the resquest, always says 0/10. how to solve this?
thks
Ernest says
You the player has to play as Makoto and kill them yourself, not just having Makoto in the party and letting him kill them without input.
Theredpowered says
you have to use queen
Edward says
Maybe it is a bug sorry the game doesn’t know what to do.
Ernest says
*her*
Ryan says
So I beat the game but didn’t get some of the requests on the 8/30. including all the second rematch ones. Is there a way to get them or do I have to start a whole new game?
Metta says
Some of the requests are unlocked until New Game plus so it means replaying the whole game twice in the same file.
Matt1yu says
If you’re referring to the Painful Past+ Requests, you get the first three after the story, and the others will be added after you’ve completed all of those. No need to go into New Game Plus, apart from the Merciless trophy and the last Persona. Quite a few Requests are triggered by completing previous ones.
If in doubt, clear it (the Request list) out.
Conor says
63. Halt the Strutting Little Imp – Shibuya Jail
This request can be received on 8/25 after completing ‘Make the Way for the Frozen King’
Adir says
I got number 63 in 8/25
You said we might get them a day earlier or a day later but this is 3 days earlier then what you wrote here
Just saying you might wanna add a note or something to that request
Also i did every single request up to this point so it might open for those who also completed all the 56 requests until 8/25
Adir says
I also got numbers 76 and 77 in 28/8 which is 2 says early
I think doing all the requests that ask you to fight a mini boss unlock one after the other
