Persona 3

Sandalphon appears as the ultimate Persona of the Moon Arcana in Persona 3. He is available once the protagonist completes the Moon Social Link with either Nozomi Suemitsu (for the male protagonist) or Shinjiro Aragaki (for the female protagonist). The player will need to fuse Gurr, Suzaku, Yatagarasu, Horus and Garuda together in a pentagon spread in order to obtain him.

Persona 4

Sandalphon is the ultimate Persona of the Moon Arcana in Persona 4. He is unlocked after the protagonist completes the Moon Arcana Social Link with Ai Ebihara. Unlike in Persona 3 he does not require a pentagon spread for fusion; a triangle spread with the 3 Moon Personas below him is the recommended method.

Devil Children Fire Book

Sandalphon is one of the brothers of Enoch that confronts Jin as he makes his way through Enoch's palace. After his defeat, the illusion dissipates to reveal a demon disguised as Sandalphon, who then disappears. The real Sandalphon's statue can be found in the Highest Peak, where he can be freed by Jin.

Devil Survivor 2 Record Breaker

"The twin brother of Metatron, he is a powerful angel from Judaic lore.
This heavenly scribe was charged with delivering humanity's prayers to God. Hebrew prayers were braided into the laurels atop God's head. Music was another one of this angel's domains.
While Metatron is known as the "bright angel," Jewish mystics refer to Sandalphon as "dark angel"."

—Devil Survivor 2 Record Breaker Compendium

Sandalphon is unlocked for fusion after the protagonist reaches Fate Level 3 with Miyako Hotsuin.
