ReFantazio Unveils Major Update for 2025

Metaphor: ReFantazio receives Update 1.11, enhancing menu navigation and addressing PC bugs. This minor patch improves user experience across all platforms, building on the game's phenomenal success since its October 2024 release.

Initially unveiled in 2016 as Project Re:Fantasy, Metaphor: ReFantazio achieved record-breaking sales, selling one million copies globally on its launch day. The game, set in the medieval fantasy world of Euchronia and following a young boy's quest to become king, has garnered widespread critical acclaim, winning numerous Game of the Year awards and achieving a perfect 100 rating on OpenCritic.

Update 1.11 introduces streamlined menu navigation. Players can now adjust battle formations and swap party members from both the main menu and equipment screen. A new "jump to category" function on the item screen accelerates gameplay. PC players benefit from numerous bug fixes, including improvements to camera control, frame rate stability, and controller responsiveness. Atlus's commitment to post-launch support ensures an optimized playing experience.

Speculation about a sequel is growing, fueled by the game's immense popularity. While director Katsura Hashino confirms no concrete plans yet, he expresses his ambition to establish Metaphor as a major JRPG franchise alongside Persona and Shin Megami Tensei.

With the ninth anniversary of Persona 5 approaching in 2025, anticipation for Persona 6 is reaching fever pitch. Metaphor: ReFantazio's success has elevated Atlus to new heights, leading many fans to believe that announcing a new Persona title would capitalize on this momentum.
