Metaphor: ReFantazio has reached over 2 million sales, as stated by Sega Sammy. While this figure is a notable achievement for the game, it also reflects a steep decline in sales right after its initial release. The latest addition by Atlus, a Japanese RPG developer, made its debut on October 11, 2024. Following this launch, Atlus disclosed that the game quickly surpassed 1 million copies sold, marking the biggest launch for the company yet. However, in the months after the initial success, it saw a significant drop in sales volume, indicating heavy front-loading in its sales trajectory. Furthermore, comparisons with other titles show that Atlus may face challenges in maintaining long-term momentum, similar to the historical performance of games like Persona 5.
