Metaphor: ReFantazio

Metaphor: ReFantazio iterates on Persona’s calendar and social mechanics and ushers in a new era for Atlus’ social-sim RPGs. Its complex battle system and overtly political story make it a standout for a studio that’s no stranger to acclaim. Atlus has found a new pillar in its stable of franchises, and I’m looking forward to whatever the future looks like for this exciting new series. — Kenneth Shepard
