Metaphor: ReFantazio Guidebook Edition PS4 & PS5

About the game

Metaphor: ReFantazio follows the protagonist and his fairy companion Gallica as they search for the kingdom’s lost prince to lift a curse from him. The journey centers on Archetypes: awakening them gives access to the abilities of job classes that can be combined, and bonds with supporters let the hero assemble a party to face powerful foes and uncover the kingdom’s true nature. Days go to quests, dungeon exploration and treasure hunting, evenings to conversations with allies and raising virtues, so how time is spent shapes progress toward the goal. A gauntlet runner carries the party to distant towns and dungeons. Battles combine real-time action with turn-based combat, and customizing the party through Archetypes sets an individual approach to the adventure. The world is depicted as a place where people must contend with their own anxiety, and a contest for the throne determines the kingdom’s fate.

Beyond the base game, the edition contains the Essential Digital Strategy Guide, a Digital Artbook and a Digital Soundtrack. These materials are aimed at players who want additional reference and multimedia content for the game.
