Metaphor: ReFantazio release times on consoles

Metaphor: ReFantazio will be released on October 11, 2024, at midnight local time on Sony and Microsoft’s consoles. This means that the so-called New Zealand trick, in which you switch the location of your Xbox console to the island nation to benefit from its timezone, will be viable – so any Xbox owners who really can’t wait to play will be able to jump in as early as midnight in New Zealand.
