Persona 4 Arena Ultimax: How to Unlock Adachi

Adachi, along with Margaret and Marie, was one of the extra characters available for Persona 4 Arena Ultimax. This article tells you how to play as him in the new version of the game.

How to Unlock Adachi in Persona 4 Arena Ultimax

How to unlock Adachi depends on which version of the game you are playing. In the original Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 releases, the only way to unlock Adachi is by purchasing him. He can be bought from either the Playstation Network or Xbox Live Marketplace. There is no other way to unlock him for free.

However, this is different in the new Playstation 4, Switch and PC release. The re-released version of the game already comes with all DLC included at no additional price. This means that you will have access to Adachi from the get go! You do have to unlock his story mode, though.

It’s worth noting that Adachi does not have a Shadow variant.

Unlocking Episode Adachi in Story Mode

To unlock Episode Adachi in Persona 4 Arena Ultimax, you simply have to complete Episode P4. Episode P4 is the one that focuses on the Investigation Team of Persona 4. As soon as you complete it, Episode Adachi will become available to play. Episode Adachi is an extra, shorter story mode which details Adachi’s role during the events of Persona 4 Arena Ultimax. Episode Adachi is straightforward and doesn’t really feature alternate paths like Episode P4 and Episode P3 do.

Unlocking Adachi’s Round Calls in the Original Release

In the original PS3 and X360 release of the game, you can unlock Adachi as a round call announcer. To do this, simply beat arcade mode with 19 different characters. Just like Adachi himself, this comes unlocked from the start in the new PS4, PC and Switch releases.
