Today, Atlus' critically acclaimed fantasy RPG, Metaphor: ReFantazio, arrived on Game Pass.
Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, PC Game Pass, and Game Pass Standard members can travel through the United Kingdom of Euchronia as political upheaval swells and usurpers vie for the throne. Step into the shoes of our young protagonist and his fairy companion, Gallica, as they embark on a secret mission that could determine the fate of the entire nation. The journey will take you across the continent and through the game’s vast network of gorgeous and unique locations.
A good adventurer learns about where they are going before they embark, so let’s take a tour through some of the United Kingdom of Euchronia’s key locations.
Tradia Desert

In the opening hours of the game, you will trek through the stunning but hostile Tradia Desert. Teeming with monsters hidden beneath the sand, the landscape is comprised of dangerous, beautiful rock formations that tower over the dusty plane – so don’t stop and admire the view for too long, or you might get caught in the jaws of a sandworm. The Nord Mines offer an equally inhospitable but gorgeous vista, featuring a winding labyrinth of vibrant stone and minerals amidst deadly enemies.
Grand Trad

For those interested in a safer, more leisurely exploration of Euchronia, look no further than the capital Grand Trad, offering a metropolis full of life and culture within the great walls that protect the city. With plenty of shops along the main street, players can browse magic igniters to wield the elements, stock up on arms and gear for their journey, and peruse the merchants’ stands for supplies. After shopping ‘til you drop, stop by the Hushed Honeybee Inn for a hot meal and friendly faces.
Tree of Prophecy

Perhaps you feel like hitting the road? Climb aboard the Gauntlet Runner and go for a ride to one of many vista locations, with stunning views begging to be captured by an artist’s brushstroke. Take a moment to admire the resplendent Tree of Prophecy, a magla hotspot, bewitching all who witness it with its incredible beauty and astounding presence.
Port Brilehaven
The flourishing Port Brilehaven, located in the Principality of Oceana, is another must-visit. A hub for many merchants, Port Brilehaven is known for its free-spirited atmosphere, ocean breeze and occasional tempests. At Port Brilehaven, the world is your oyster: you can catch a trip on a ferry, spectate (or take part in) battles in Varmareno Coliseum, and trade with merchants peddling unique wares.

Oceana
Be prepared to brave the wild seas during your travels through Oceana! Awaiting brave sailors are nature-defying water formations, including a spectacular spot where the sea appears to be split in two. Just don’t get too enamored with the otherworldly phenomena – monsters roam the deep, and tales of visitors being dragged below are not uncommon.
This has just been a small glimpse at some of the many one-of-a-kind locations to be found across the United Kingdom of Euchronia. Uncover more gorgeous landscapes, engaging combat and an epic narrative in Metaphor: ReFantazio, available starting today with Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, PC Game Pass, and Game Pass Standard on Xbox Series X|S and Xbox PC with support for Xbox Play Anywhere.
