Why it matters
A Switch 2 release at a lower price, arriving with a platform-wide price revision, puts the 2024 fantasy RPG in front of handheld players without a full-price ask.
Key Facts
- Atlus released the Nintendo Switch 2 version of Metaphor: ReFantazio on November 12.
- The Switch 2 version is priced at 3,990 yen with tax included.
- Character designer Shigenori Soejima drew a new illustration for the launch.
- The port offers Performance, Balanced, and Graphics modes in both handheld and TV mode.
- Price revisions for each platform began the same day.
The port adds three selectable performance modes, Performance, Balanced, and Graphics, available in both handheld and TV modes. Atlus also began price revisions across platforms the same day.
The Switch 2 edition carries three performance modes that work in both handheld and TV play. Performance lowers resolution for a steadier frame rate, Balanced splits the difference between image quality and frame rate, and Graphics raises rendering quality. Atlus notes the frame rate can still drop depending on the situation, and that both modes are tuned to run in principle at 30fps or higher.
The game itself is the 2024 fantasy RPG from the creators of the Persona series, set in a world of eight races where a traveling boy and his fairy companion Gallica seek to lift a death curse on a prince, then get pulled into the election that follows the king's assassination in the United Kingdom of Euchronia.
