For Persona 5 Royal players who want to see all the possible endings, this guide will show you them all, be warned that there will be spoilers. I would recommend at least beating the game once before reading through this.
Introduction
The main difference between the 5 main possible endings and the game over endings is that the 5 main endings allow you to start New Game+ after watching it, whereas game over endings will just rewind time and put you back a week.
Overview of Ending Branches
Normal Ending
Normal Ending
True (Royal) Ending
The Royal Ending is basically the True Ending, but with an extra scene if you meet the requirements.
November 17
Once you’ve gotten the Councillor (Maruki) Confidant to Rank 9 by 11/17, you will unlock the 3rd semester and the story will progress towards the True (Royal) Ending.
– You’ll also need to get the Justice (Akechi) Confidant to Rank 8 by 11/17 to unlock the Royal Ending’s extra scene. Otherwise, you’ll only get the True Ending.
– Contrary to popular belief, you don’t need to the Faith (Kasumi) Confidant to be Rank 5 before 12/22 for the True (Royal) Ending. Not doing this just means you’re completely locked out of ranking up the Confidant for the rest of the playthrough.
November 20
You will be interrogated by Sae. Only the 2nd and 3rd question matters for the story to progress further.
December 24
You will be offered a deal by the God of Control. Refuse it to progress the story.
January 9
You will be offered a deal by Maruki. Refuse it to progress the story.
February 2
You will be offered a deal by Maruki again, and Akechi will talk to you. Reaffirm your will to fight to get the True (Royal) Ending.
The Normal Ending was the True Ending in Persona 5.
November 17
Do not get the Councillor (Maruki) Confidant to Rank 9 by 11/17, or the story will progress towards the True (Royal) Ending.

You will be interrogated by Sae. Only the 2nd and 3rd question matters for the story to progress further.

You will be offered a deal by the God of Control. Refuse it to progress the story.

Bad Ending 3
There’s actually two ways to get this ending, one on Jan 9, and the other on Feb 2.
November 17

ALTERNATIVELY (If you refused the deal on January)
February 2
Maruki will offer you the deal again, and Akechi will talk to you afterwards. Tell him you’re taking the offer to get the ending.
Game Over Endings
Each palace has their own game over ending for failing to clear it before the deadline. They’re pretty interesting to watch since the endings themselves vary to a degree as you progress the story, so it’s not just a generic game over screen.
Note that once you get the game over, you won’t be given the choice to start a New Game+. You’ll only be able to rewind to a week ago, or load a save.
