Who’s making Metaphor: Refantazio?
As noted, Katsura Hashino (director of
Persona 3,
4,
5, and
Catherine) is leading development on
Metaphor: ReFantazio, but he isn’t the only
Persona vet on the project. Shigenori Soejima, who worked as a character designer on many of the same titles, is once again collaborating with Hashino on the game. Shoji Meguro is also composing
Metaphor: ReFantazio, making for a bit of a dream team who’ve made some of the biggest RPGs of this, and several previous, generations. A lot of staff that worked on the
Persona games followed Hashino from P-Studio after his departure at the end of 2016.
Additionally, Koda Kazuma, who worked on
Nier: Automata, and Ikuto Yamashita, whose credits include the anime series
Neon Genesis Evangelion, are working on
Metaphor: ReFantazio as a concept artist and mechanical designer, respectively. It’s safe to say that if you loved the big RPGs this team has made in the past, you’re likely in good hands with
Metaphor: ReFantazio, and no shortage of talent is being thrown at the project.
