Metaphor: ReFantazio was developer Atlus' first original game since 2011's twisted love triangle Catherine, but its world might extend further than just a single game as director Katsura Hashino hopes it can become a series.
Shin Megami Tensei and its now-more-popular offshoot Persona have been steadily chugging along for decades, but Atlus decided to take its JRPG chops and apply it to an all-new setting in this year's acclaimed Metaphor: ReFantazio, which mixes a high fantasy world, a politically charged plot, and the developer's signature in-game calendar system - a concoction that turned it into the studio's fastest-selling game of all time.
