Metaphor ReFantazio complete walkthrough- How to 100% the game

Much like the Persona games, Metaphor ReFantazio also comes with a calendar system because of which you will have very limited opportunities to 100% the JRPG. Your schedule will be packed and you will need to make the most of every single day as you make your way through the narrative.

Following the correct strategy will allow you to complete every single main story mission, side quest, and request. While maxing out Follower Ranks and Royal Virtues. However, this will also drastically increase your playsytle, and you will be going up against some of the hardest side encounters.

So if you are a hardcore completionist, here is a complete Metaphor ReFantazio walkthrough which will let you 100% the game if you are meticulously following the steps.

Note: The walkthrough below is catered more towards a playthrough on Normal difficulty. It will also not go into too many details on team compositions, weapons, and the Archetypes that you should be using. Follow the combat style and team compositions that you want. In this respect, Metaphor ReFantazio is much easier to 100% than older Persona games.
