Persona 5: The Phantom X Soundtrack

Music Club rhythm minigame — every song, every unlock condition, every reward

Persona 5: The Phantom X Soundtrack

"Soundtrack" in P5X isn't a music player — it's the Music Club (軽音部), a rhythm minigame. Each song has 2-3 difficulty stages, and each stage has 3 unlock conditions (like "180+ Perfect notes" or "Achieve a Full Combo") that pay Band Badges, the club's own currency. This page reads every condition straight from the game's own data so you know exactly what a stage is asking for before you play it.

Every one of the 117 unlock conditions across all 39 currently playable stages, pulled straight from the game's own data.

We also found the pattern the game itself doesn't explain: Easy, Normal and Hard stages always ask for the exact same 3 kinds of condition, in the exact same order. Once you know the pattern, you know what every stage wants before you even open it.

Every reward on this page is paid in Band Badges — the Music Club's own currency, exchanged for items in its shop.

How the scoring works

Every note you hit gets judged into one of 4 tiers. Hitting closer to the exact beat gives a better judgment, more score, and more Fever gauge.

Score Fever gauge Timing window (Normal / Easy)
Perfect 200 2 -120,50 / -150,50
Great 100 1 -240,80 / -300,100
Good 50 0 -500,150 / -500,150
Miss 0 0 -600,150 / -600,150

Timing windows are in milliseconds before/after the exact beat (e.g. "-120 / +50" means you can hit up to 120ms early or 50ms late and still get that judgment). Easy mode gives a wider window than Normal. Co-op mode widens the window further still — figures are read straight from the game's own note-judgment data.

Unlock conditions by difficulty — the pattern

Across all 39 stages currently in the game, every stage of a given difficulty asks for the same 3 kinds of condition, in the same order. Know the pattern, know the run.

Easy stages (16/16 confirmed) — 1) Hit a set number of Perfect notes in a single run. 2) Reach a combo threshold in a single run. 3) Clear the stage with a Full Combo (zero Miss/Good, only Perfect/Great). Easy charts have the fewest notes, so the Full Combo condition is usually the easiest of the three to land first.

Normal stages (16/16 confirmed) — 1) Keep Miss notes at or under a set number in a single run. 2) Earn a set number of S ratings, counted cumulatively across your attempts (not in one run). 3) Clear the stage with a Full Combo. The S-rating condition rewards replaying a stage you already cleared well, rather than one perfect run.

Hard stages (7/7 confirmed — only 7 of the 16 released songs have a Hard chart yet) — 1) Earn a set number of A-or-better ratings, counted cumulatively. 2) Reach a higher combo threshold in a single run. 3) Hit an exact score target in a single run. Hard charts have roughly 2-3x the notes of Easy, so the score target is usually the hardest of the three — it needs a near-flawless run, not just a high combo.

FAQ

Is this the same as the P5X background music player?

No. This page covers the Music Club rhythm minigame (score/combo/Perfect-note challenges). The game also has a separate BGM jukebox system for listening to unlocked tracks, which isn't covered here.

Do I need to hit every condition in one perfect run?

No. Perfect-note count, combo, and score-target conditions need one single run that meets the number. S/A-rating conditions are cumulative — they count across every attempt you've ever made on that stage, so replaying a stage you've already cleared well still makes progress.

Why does Hard mode ask for an exact score instead of a rank?

The game's own data shows this pattern on every Hard stage that exists so far (7/7): a cumulative A-rating count, a combo threshold, then a fixed score number — not a percentage or letter grade. Hitting that number needs a near-flawless run on a chart with roughly 2-3x the notes of the Easy version.

What do Band Badges buy?

Band Badges are the Music Club's own currency (confirmed in the game's item data as an exchangeable Currency item), spent in the club's own shop. Every condition, rank reward and first-clear reward on this page pays out in Band Badges.
