00:30How long is the journey to Brilehaven?
00:32Four days. Not to brag, but this old duck's craft might be the fastest in the kingdom.
00:40Got a bit of a trip ahead of us, so you're free to put your feet up, eh?
00:44Where to?
00:45Here we go.
00:47Finally, some fun.
00:51Edible fauna everywhere I look.
00:54Roasted larvae of the giant sandbar.
00:56It's a unique texture, but the taste is divine.
01:00Time to get back to work.
01:01Right then. Let's get this plan underway.
01:04Iceman!
01:06Come out!
01:08Show yourself!
01:09Ah! Enough! Stop this Infernal Din!
01:14Besides, didn't you hear what it is they're actually looking for?
01:18It's about whoever can bring in the biggest monster head, right?
01:21If you imbeciles can't even get that straight, you've no chance of winning.
01:26You would count your new friends as reliable warriors, correct?
01:29We've overcome plenty of obstacles.
01:31Let's believe in the strength that goes this far.
01:38Wow!
01:39It's the ocean!
01:43It almost feels like everything we thought we knew about the world was wrong.
01:48The world is full of unsavory sorts.
01:53What say we work together?
01:55The more comrades and supporters who stand beside you,
01:58the more your power will deepen as you soar to new heights.
02:02And those are...
02:04songs.
02:05I feel quite...
02:08quite...
02:09uh...
02:10right?
02:11Right?
02:12Right?
02:15I'd thought for a long time that if I wanted to feel accepted,
02:19I'd need power, status.
02:23I just needed allies, friends.
02:28You're already one of us.
02:30I am glad we travel as friends.
02:32and we've both got something we'd fight to protect.
02:36If thou wouldst change the world by thine own hand,
02:40venture forth.
02:42Thy journey shalt reveal thy soul's mission.
02:59Hello, everyone.
03:01I'm Katsura Hashino.
03:02the director of Metaphore ReFantazio.
03:05My representative works include Shin Megami Tensei III, Persona III, IV, and V.
03:10In previous showcases, we've revealed the general flow of the game,
03:14as well as the combat and story elements.
03:16in this Atlas Exclusive Showcase World Tour Edition, we will be going over the Journey aspects, a wonderful hallmark of
03:23fantasy RPGs.
03:25The Journey gameplay is what uniquely sets this game apart from the Persona and Shin Megami Tensei series.
03:31I'm extremely excited to share the details with you all.
03:35For today's Exclusive Showcase World Tour Edition, I'll be sharing brand new, never-before-seen content.
03:41For RPG fans, as well as those who are first learning about Metaphore through this showcase, I hope you see
03:48the fun adventure you can experience through this game.
03:52If you haven't already, make sure to subscribe to the Atlas YouTube channel for the latest updates.
03:57Without further ado, let us depart to the world of Metaphore ReFantazio.
04:02I hope you stick with us until the very end.
04:12First, let us start by reviewing the beginning of the game.
04:15The story is set in the United Kingdom of Ukronia.
04:19The protagonist is on a mission with his fairy companion, Galika, to save his friend, the Prince, from a curse.
04:24During his journey, he awakens an archetype, the Seeker.
04:29In order to save the prince, he has to defeat the person who cast it.
04:33And not only did they curse the prince, the culprit also assassinated the king.
04:38The protagonist travels to the royal capital to take him down.
04:42However, upon the king's death, the king evoked royal magic, which began the Royal Tournament,
04:48where the people's faith is the key to select the next king.
04:52As a result, the entire kingdom is thrown into chaos.
04:56In all the turmoil, the protagonist makes the decision to participate in the royal tournament for the throne,
05:01to catch the culprit, Louise.
05:05This is how they begin their battle, a journey that takes them all across the kingdom,
05:10traveling on a mechanical carriage called the Gauntlet Runner.
05:19This is a town out in the countryside that the party visits in the beginning of the story.
05:24While we designed the game to incrementally increase freedoms for the player,
05:29obtaining a Gauntlet Runner after the story prologue increases the player's ability to travel around.
05:36Let's explore the town.
05:39At each destination are activities unique to that area.
05:43In this town, there's a test of courage where you bungee jump up a cliff.
05:49You can also do things like milk cows.
05:53Through these activities, you can increase your virtues as a traveler.
05:59Increasing these virtues enables you to take on new requests.
06:06It's up to you, the player, on how you want to spend every single day of your journey before encountering
06:11your main quest.
06:12Give it a shot!
06:13Leading up to your main quests, you can strengthen your forces by completing side quests.
06:18Increase your bonds with your followers or do activities that increase the protagonist's virtues.
06:23You have the freedom to choose what you want to do each day, much like real life.
06:29If you want to improve your fighting abilities, you can visit the recruitment center to accept side requests called bounties
06:36to exterminate monsters.
06:39We took on a request to exterminate a monster called Valmo.
06:43You get information on its whereabouts, but there's no need to head out immediately if you're not prepared for the
06:49fight.
06:49This person standing outside looks like he has a request for us.
06:53We've been asked to buy something from a nearby town.
06:57There's a stop on the way to the Labyrinth, where the Valmo is, for the extermination request we took on.
07:04There's a lot of people in town that have information.
07:07There's some who will talk to you about the main quest, but in this town you can also ask about
07:12the town's specialties.
07:14Among these people, the Informant is particularly valuable for getting intel.
07:19They're useful resources, as you can learn more about rumors as well as the habits of monsters that you might
07:25come across.
07:26But the information costs money.
07:28If you're confident in your fighting abilities, you could choose to tackle enemies without buying the information beforehand.
07:36Here's someone who can tell us about how the royal tournament is going.
07:40The protagonist's goal is to get closer to Luis, who also has the ability to become king himself because of
07:46the royal magic.
07:48Let's see what our current standing is.
07:51Looks like we're quite a ways from being in the public eye.
07:55This ranking changes through story development, but it also increases through completing quests.
08:03As you can see, the player has a lot of options on how they want to spend each day of
08:08their journey.
08:09You can use the online feature, Traveler's Voices, to see how other players spent that day.
08:14You can also use it to reference the party formations of other players who beat the quest you're tackling.
08:20Each player will have their own day-to-day way of progressing through their journey as they move through the
08:25story,
08:25which is one of the true charms Metaphor offers.
08:28Let's move on and see how it's like to travel on a gauntlet runner.
08:38When you open the map, your allies will give advice on destinations and tell you what the schedule will be.
08:45We have two requests to do in Comero, so let's head there.
08:51It's dangerous outside of town, so traveling is done by Gauntlet Runner.
08:56While on the road, you can do things you might do in real life when on a camper van,
09:00such as reading or cooking.
09:03How you perform in battle can vary greatly depending on how you decide to prepare yourself while en route somewhere.
09:12Your allies have their own things they do while on the gauntlet runner.
09:17Let's try talking to Stroll to see what he's up to.
09:21He invited us to do weapon maintenance with him.
09:25It looks like maintaining your weapon hones your courage.
09:30By improving your virtues like this, others' perception of the protagonist changes.
09:35My name is Brigitte.
09:38It's particularly indispensable for gaining cooperation from your followers,
09:42so we should do what we can to raise these virtues.
09:45Players are free to choose how they spend their time while on the gauntlet runner.
09:49You can make special items in the kitchen or even do laundry with your allies.
09:55Looks like we found an item from the laundry.
09:58Someone must have been hiding it.
10:01Like how you spend time in town, players can choose what to do and enjoy their journey at a smooth
10:07pace.
10:08You can also stop by a nearby village if there is one.
10:12We got something. Let's go hand it to our ally right away.
10:16I knew it! This thing's a genuine article!
10:21We finished our request from Murus, the gauntlet runner engineer.
10:25Thanks to that, we awakened the gunner archetype.
10:29Completing quests like this is an important factor for deepening your bonds with your followers.
10:36Let's go buy the eggs that someone requested we get for them.
10:43They're also selling bath salts that you can't find in town.
10:47You can buy valuable items like this on your travels,
10:49so you should try visiting as many places as you can.
10:59Looks like the gauntlet runner arrived to the labyrinth called Maneater's Grotto.
11:04Let's try channeling that gunner archetype we just got.
11:08The gunner can attack quickly from afar in fast battle,
11:12so it's relatively easy to get an advantage and move to a squad battle,
11:16even for those who aren't that good with real-time action.
11:21In squad battle, the gunner shoots ranged physical attacks
11:25and also maintains its attack power from the back row.
11:29One of the benefits of improving your bonds with your followers
11:31is that you can obtain new archetypes,
11:33which gives you more strategies to use in battle
11:36in addition to unlocking all kinds of useful abilities you can use in battle.
11:44By the way, you can always return to your base town from the dungeon
11:48in an instant, so if you feel underleveled, you can always retreat.
11:53If you can't complete a dungeon within a day,
11:56you can set up camp in front of the dungeon and go back to tackling it the next day.
12:02However, don't get too distracted on tackling dungeons
12:05that you forget the time limit for your main mission.
12:09Is this right?
12:12What we just looked at were dungeons for the many side quests we have in store for you.
12:17But let's take a look at another kind of dungeon as well.
12:21Here's a first look at a main quest dungeon.
12:24It's the belly of a giant worm, believe it or not.
12:28It's a dungeon with a special time limit,
12:30since you have to escape before you get digested and dissolved.
12:36There are a lot of creative fantasy dungeons that await you on your journey in Metaphor.
12:44We've prepared a lot of dungeons, big and small, and we hope you look forward to them.
12:52Now then, let's continue on with our journey.
13:01Here's a first look at the town, Port Brylhaven.
13:06It's a lively port town where sailors come and go.
13:10First, let's head towards the port itself.
13:14You can see a lot of street stalls lined up.
13:17Let's take a look at the armor shop.
13:20Thanks to one of my followers' abilities, I can get a discount here.
13:25And after talking to the owner, it seems like there will be a sale soon.
13:31Here's the port area.
13:33There's some strange balls of water.
13:37There are a lot of strange sights throughout the area of Brylhaven.
13:42There's also a coliseum further inside the city.
13:45Can you tell how many things are in store for you to do?
13:49Let's keep walking.
13:52Now we're in the area where the tavern is.
13:54There are a lot of inns, too.
13:56Business is booming from people coming in for the royal tournament for the throne.
14:01Here is a seafood restaurant, which you might expect from an ocean town.
14:05And of course, since we're in a new town, there's new activities for us to experience.
14:11If you wanted to take in the sights to hone your virtues, you can take a boat tour around town,
14:16or see the special view from a viewing spot up high.
14:19The more you progress through the story, the more there is for you to do.
14:23If you're unsure about what there is to do, you can always press the Ask Gallica button to ask your
14:28fairy companion for advice.
14:30She'll always help show you around, like a concierge for your travels.
14:40Your travel map will slowly get more and more complex.
14:44As you can see on this screen, there are multiple routes you can take to get to the same location.
14:49If you visit multiple places in one stretch, the number of days you use will decrease proportionally.
14:55But you may end up needing to tackle battle after battle, so you'll need the power to match.
15:00Planning your travel route is another area of the game where you'll have to strategize carefully.
15:09Despite how tough Gauntlet Runners are, it's still dangerous to go around at night because of the monsters running free.
15:15So at night, the party pause their travels and rest up at a campsite.
15:19Here you can take your pick of nighttime activities, such as having a relaxed conversation with your allies, or taking
15:25a bath.
15:26Let's try taking a soak in the cask tub at the back of the deck.
15:31While we're at it, let's use the bath salt that we bought at one of the villages before.
15:37It has a relaxing effect, which increased the protagonist's stats.
15:42By the way, there are different kinds of bath salts available, which you can find as you travel throughout the
15:47land.
15:49Looks like we came across something!
15:52Another pleasure of traveling is coming across scenic sights you'd only see in another world.
15:57An ally will draw you a commemoration sketch.
16:00If you give it to one of your followers, a young girl who's awaiting your return in Grand Trad will
16:04be happy.
16:10Here's another location reveal, a place called Virga Island.
16:15On this island, you can enjoy unique tracks themed after religious music composed by Shoji Meguro, who is well known
16:23for his work on the Persona series.
16:25Here, the protagonist makes yet another new encounter.
16:29Her name is Yufa, a new ally that's only now being revealed in this showcase.
16:35You must be there.
16:37I wonder what role she plays in the protagonist's journey.
16:42I hope you look forward to learning more about her in the future.
16:54So, what do you think?
16:56If you had to actually go on a long journey in real life, it wouldn't be a simple endeavor.
17:03Taking that into account, we hope that you enjoy the journey of Metaphor, where you can travel as you please
17:08from the comfort of your own home.
17:11Though we've largely focused on the profound fantasy elements metaphor, simply, it is also a game filled with the joys
17:18of traveling from town to town, an element we hope for in fantasy RPGs.
17:26Though this title is a rare attempt from us at the fantasy genre, we aim to make this a culmination
17:31of the efforts in our previous RPGs.
17:37We hope everyone, including fans familiar with Persona and Shin Megami Tensei, as well as those who love fantasy RPGs,
17:45enjoys playing Metaphor.
17:47We've shared information on Metaphor's world setting and story, battle system and other aspects of the game in other showcases.
17:54Please feel free to take a look at those if you haven't already.
18:00The next exclusive showcase coming out this fall will reveal exciting new information.
18:07Please look forward to it.
18:10In addition, Tokyo Game Show 2024 is taking place this fall, and we will be having a large exhibit, where
18:18we'll offer a hands-on game experience of Metaphor Re-Fantasio.
18:22On top of being able to experience the journey gameplay like we introduced today, there will also be another special
18:29demo available to play at the event.
18:32We'll release more details related to the event in the future. We look forward to seeing you at Tokyo Game
