Metaphor: ReFantazio Switch 2 patch to fix color issues

Metaphor: ReFantazio arrived on Switch 2 this week, and while the port was well-received by fans and critics, you might run into a problem.

Sega (and Atlus) have acknowledged that this is an official Japanese message regarding the game’s release. Luckily, this isn’t a game-breaking bug or anything like that, it just changes the colors of items and characters. Here is a rough translation:

Atlas: “We have confirmed that after a certain period of play, some items and characters temporarily display colors different from their original colors. This bug does not affect game progress.

“We are preparing an update patch to fix this bug. When the stream starts, we will announce it on the official X account and official website.”

As noted, a fix to resolve this issue is already in the works. This bug can apparently appear after 30 hours of gameplay.

Along with this news, Atlus also shared special artwork to commemorate the release of this title on Switch 2 this week. The illustrations come from the game’s character designer, Shigenori Soejima.
