“Experience the World of a Popular Game! ‘Metaphor: ReFantazio Exhibition’ at Namba Parks Museum Runs Until August 31.”

From July 11 to August 31, 2025, the “Metaphor: ReFantazio Exhibition” will be held at Namba Parks Museum in Naniwa Ward, Osaka. We had the special opportunity to attend a preview event for the media before its official opening!

This exhibition showcases the globally acclaimed fantasy RPG game by ATLUS, which won three awards at The Game Awards 2024: “BEST RPG,” “BEST ART DIRECTION,” and “BEST NARRATIVE.”

Here, a stunning key visual is on display.

This area recreates the mysterious “Academia,” a study-like room from the game.

At this photo spot, visitors can pose as if riding on a giant sword.

This area displays character illustrations and descriptions.

This section recreates the game’s UI (user interface), allowing visitors to experience a photo spot that feels like stepping into a command battle.

Here, the main menu artwork is exhibited.

Additionally, right next to the “Metaphor: ReFantazio Exhibition” venue, “#702 CAFE&DINER Namba Parks” is hosting a collaboration café until August 31, 2025!

The collaboration space inside the café features illustrations and panels.

This is the menu.

Both food and drinks are inspired by the game’s characters and world, offering a taste of its rich storytelling.
