Metaphor: ReFantazio sold way better on PC than its developers expected, again proving gamers on the platform have a growing appetite for the subgenre and for Japanese games as a whole.
In an interview with 4Gamer translated by Automaton, frequent Persona lead and Metaphor's creative director Katsura Hashino said the team's newest fantasy romp far exceeded their expectations on PC, but it also fits into a larger trend. "Although Atlus is generally associated with console games," Hashino revealed the percentage of PC folk playing Atlus games goes up every single year. "Even if you look at long-term data from over the past five to 10 years, the trend is evident."
