"We are aware there is an optimization issue on Steam and are actively working to address this problem. "We will share updates, including patch release information through our official social media platforms, once available," Atlus continued in another tweet.
"We greatly appreciate your patience and continued support of Metaphor: ReFantazio!" The game's release date is currently slated for October 11, which is just under a couple of weeks away.

In fact, I'd even advise holding off on PC if you're planning to dive deep into the upcoming JRPG, as the game's director Katsura Hashino has said that it'll be about as long as Persona 5 .
For context, that game takes you about 100 hours to complete just doing the .
