Atlus has announced via its Japanese official website and Studio Zero’s X account that it has sold over 1 million units of Metaphor: ReFantazio worldwide. This number combines the physical copies shipped with the digital sales across all of the game’s platforms—Xbox, PlayStation, and PC.
The company made this announcement right on the launch day for the game, which fell on October 11, 2024. That means it also factored in digital pre-orders for Metaphor: ReFantazio in addition to the physical shipments to reach the 1 million sales milestone that quickly.
A new illustration featuring Gallica has also appeared to celebrate the milestone. The Japanese text in the image reads “1 million units surpassed worldwide! Thank you!!”
Atlus also boasted the Metacritic average scores for Metaphor: ReFantazio, which went above 90 on multiple platforms as of October 11, 2024. It recorded 93 points for the PlayStation 5 release, 92 points for the Xbox versions, and 91 points for the PC version available via Steam and Microsoft Store.
In addition, Atlus also reminded people that Metaphor: ReFantazio had received back-to-back Future Division awards from the Japan Game Awards held during the 2023 and 2024 Tokyo Game Show. These awards particularly signified enormous anticipation from the Japanese public, as public votes from the event’s first three days determined the award winners.
Metaphor: ReFantazio is now available worldwide on Xbox Series X, Xbox One, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, and PC.
