A demo of Metaphor: ReFantazio is available today

A demo for Metaphor: ReFantazio is available now in Japan, and is rolling out around the world.

The demo – which is now available on the Japanese PSN store, and is planned to roll out across other regions later today and tomorrow – will allow players to play through one of the opening sequences in the game.

The demo will also be available on Xbox and Steam.

Save data from the demo will carry over into the final game, as the demo largely consists of the prologue sequence of the upcoming Atlus RPG.

Metaphor: ReFantazio is scheduled for release on October 11.

Last weekend, the game sponsored the Haas F1 team, due to one of the real-life drivers sharing a name with an in-game companion.

A VGC hands-on preview said that Metaphor: ReFantazio ” is going to make the wait for Persona 6 so much easier”.

“It’s not a Persona clone, but the team has taken everything you’d want them to from a Persona title, and brought it to its new world of Metaphor: ReFantazio,” we wrote.

“If the future of Atlus is swapping between a Metaphor and a Persona every few years, we’re all for it.”
