Sega has been on a roll in 2024, having already delivered a number of excellent games in the form of Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, Persona 3 Reload, Unicorn Overlord, and Shin Megami Tensei 5: Vengeance. Now, the company is set to cap off its year with another major role in the form of Atlus’ brand-new fantasy RPG IP, Metaphor: ReFantazio, and ahead of its release, excitement surrounding it is continuing to build.
That excitement, in fact, is also being reflected in a sudden surge in sales seen by the game, specifically on Steam. On the platform’s global top seller charts – which tracks sales based on their total revenue generated – Metaphor: ReFantazio has broken into the top 10 (and was in the top 5 earlier in the day).
At the time of writing, the game sits in sixth place, behind Counter-Strike 2, Dragon Ball: Sparking! ZERO, EA Sports FC 25, Silent Hill 2, and Throne and Liberty.
Reviews for Metaphor: ReFantazio went live earlier this week, with the fantasy RPG drawing widespread critical acclaim. Read more on that through here.
Metaphor: ReFantazio launches on October 11 for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, and PC. A demo is available on all platforms, and allows progress to be carried over into the full game.
