Metaphor: ReFantazio is the latest JRPG from Studio Zero and Atlus, the latter of which is behind the beloved Persona franchise. Given that Persona was, in a way, an extension of an even earlier franchise for Atlus, Shin Megami Tensei, its no surprise that Metaphor: ReFantazio also has a familiar look and feel on the surface. That being said, this is not just a re-skin of the same old thing. Metaphor: ReFantazio is Atlus first step into true high fantasy, something a little less common for JRPGs, but a prime example of why it should be explored more.
