Today marks the release of Metaphor: ReFantazio, a new game from the team behind the Persona series. After receiving rave reviews, fans of ATLUS flocked to the new RPG. Publisher SEGA has announced that Metaphor: ReFantazio has sold one million units on its first day of release.

SEGA made a post on X to announce the sales milestone for Metaphor: ReFantazio. The post includes a graphic featuring Gallica, the fairy companion to Metaphor’s protagonist.
