A major new RPG coming from the creative leads of Persona was never not going to do well, but Metaphor: ReFantazio has perhaps done better than even Atlus or Sega could have expected. Upon its release last week, the fantasy RPG instantly saw a peak of over 61,000 concurrent players on Steam, and that number has only grown over the weekend.
As per SteamDB, on Sunday, Metaphor: ReFantazio saw a peak of 85,961 players on Steam. The only other JRPG with a higher concurrent users peak on the platform of Granblue Fantasy: Relink, which launched earlier this year and hit nearly 115,000 concurrent players at its peak. At the time of writing, Metaphor has over 50,000 concurrent players.
The newly-released fantasy RPG has clearly got off to an impressive start for Atlus. In addition to being one of the best-reviewed games of the year, it also soDaily Lotto Resultsld over a million units in its first six hours, becoming the fastest-selling Atlus game to date.
Metaphor: ReFantazio is available on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, and PC.
