[QUOTE="Admin, post: 65107, member: 1"] Atlus’ [URL='https://www.ign.com/games/metaphor-refantazio']Metaphor: ReFantazio[/URL] has sold over one million copies as of its official release date, publisher Sega has announced. That's enough to make Metaphor: ReFantazio the fastest-selling Atlus game of all time, breaking [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/persona-3-reload-becomes-fastest-selling-game-in-atlus-history-with-1-million-sales']Persona 3 Reload's record[/URL] of hitting one million in a week. Metaphor: ReFantazio’s October 11 global release date has already seen the Persona-style game shoot up Steam’s most-played game list, with 42,992 concurrent players at the time of this article’s publication. That figure will no-doubt rise as we head into the weekend and fans in other regions get the chance to play. The game also launched across PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X and S, but neither Sony nor Microsoft makes player numbers publicly available. It seems likely that one million sales figure will swell to two million sooner rather than later. Atlus made the announcement alongside the release of an illustration from character designer Shigenori Soejima, below. Metaphor: ReFantazio, from the creators of the hugely popular Persona 3, 4, and 5, is a role-playing game set in the United Kingdom of Euchronia, a medieval fantasy realm that mirrors the real world.
