Metaphor: ReFantazio releases today, but you probably already know that. In fact, there's a decent chance you already own it. Atlus is bragging that the game—its tale of high-fantasy racism fought by fake David Bowie—has already sold a million copies across all platforms
In a (machine-translated) post on its own site, Atlus announced that "total worldwide sales (packaged version shipped + download version sold) have surpassed 1 million copies!" As is company tradition, the studio got artist Shigenori Soejima to throw together a quick celebratory sketch of Gallica—pretty much the game's equivalent to Persona 5's mascot Morgana or Persona 4's Teddie—to mark the occasion.
Atlus doesn't actually say this, but unless I'm mistaken I think this makes Metaphor the company's new fastest-selling game. Earlier in 2024, Atlus tooted its horn about Persona 3 Reload being its fastest-selling game ever, with a million sales in its first week. Metaphor seems to have done that in time for its first day, so barring some kind of book-keeping weirdness I reckon it's the new record-holder.
