Unsure of whether you want to play it? Here’s what our editor-in-chief Dom Peppiatt had to say about the game in their review: “Every individual strand weaves together to form something utterly exceptional in Metaphor. It may well be Atlus’ masterpiece; well-presented, well-realised, and totally unashamed to be a big, silly, fantastical piece of role-playing genius. Don’t be put off by the fact it isn’t wearing the Persona moniker; chances are, if you love anything about the Persona games, you’re going to find it in Metaphor - but better. As a foundation for a new IP, I don’t think the developer could have done better.”
High praise indeed. And it’s praise that’s well-earned. The game became Atlus’ fastest-selling title of all time, reaching a million units by the end of its first day on sale. The game is also Atlus’ most-played title of 2024.
These are pretty crazy stats considering the developer already saw a great deal of success with Persona 3 Reload coming out earlier this year. That title took a few days longer to hit the million units mark, and its concurrent player count as of mid-October was a whole 30,000 players less than ReFantazio. Not bad for a new franchise.
