Metaphor: ReFantazio Will Have 7 Party Members

The upcoming Atlus RPG Metaphor: ReFantazio will reportedly include a total of 7 party members. A maximum of 4 playable characters can be in the party at once. [Thanks, ryokutya2089!]

In an upcoming Famitsu interview with Metaphor: ReFantazio Director Katsura Hashino confirmed the total number of party members. The new party members will join the group as the story progresses. The playable characters confirmed so far include the protagonist, Strohl, Hulkenberg, and Heismay.

The fae Gallica is featured in the main menu as a party member, but she won’t be playable. She will instead act as a support character offering navigation. It is unclear if Atlus counts Gallica as one of the 7 total party members. Depending on whether she is included as one of the party members or not, this means that there are either 2 or 3 unconfirmed party members in Metaphor: ReFantazio.

As a reminder, Atlus recently confirmed that Metaphor: ReFantazio will not feature romantic relationships as part of the new Bonds system. A recent global showcase of the game featured over 30 minutes of gameplay introducing new elements.

Metaphor: ReFantazio will come out worldwide on October 11, 2024 for the PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC via Steam. Pre-orders for the game are now open.
