To present its new license, Atlus is putting the package on epileptic editing, just to distil here and there various information on its mechanics: we thus find a usual calendar system, a menu with an ever-extensive UI, different classes and the synthesis system, which seems to be the equivalent of personas. History to reassure the most ardent amateurs of the universe SMT, Metaphor ReFantazio also offers classic turn-based, fantasy being favored in the character design and probably the narration, which seems just as bombastic and scary as in the main series Shin Megami Tensei, with a special appetite for the deity. To close it all, Atlus reveals a simple and formal release date: 2024. Since Persona 3 Reload is planned for the beginning of next year, it’s a safe bet that this Metaphor ReFantazio should not compete with it at the same period and therefore deliver more in the second half of the year.
Shin Persona Tensei
As for Persona 3 Reload and Persona 5 Tactica, also highlighted during this Xbox presentation, Metaphor ReFantazio is here announced only for Xbox Series X/S and Windows, even if the chances of seeing it announced within 48 hours on other platforms are very high. The scenario has already presented itself last year, for the porting of games Personas 3, 4 and 5 on modern media. Moreover, Atlus also plans to hold a special presentation dedicated to this new license on June 20 at 8 p.m. (Japanese time), or 1 p.m. for us; the fairly obvious opportunity to announce the presence of the title on other platforms.
