Metaphor: ReFantazio - When Is The Point Of No Return

Metaphor: ReFantazio has a lot of free time to use, but when is the last playable day before the point of no return?

What Rank To Pick For The Gambling Man In Metaphor: ReFantazio (August 13th)

  • You can bet 5,000, 10,000, or 15,000 Reeve.
  • Being right offers twice as much back, being wrong means you lost it all.

The first time you can visit the Gambling Man will be during your free time in Brilehaven during July and August, with the deadline being August 13th. During this time, you should choose ranks 20-11. While your popularity is mostly decided by the amount of side content you complete in the game, the story will take over and require you to reach rank 20 during the deadline, so you don't need to do anything specific to win this gamble beyond picking the right choice.

Gallica will disapprove of your gambling, but you're doing the right thing in this instance.

After choosing your rank, be sure to choose the maximum amount of money possible or that you can afford, as the story will guarantee you are correct and getting a return on your gamble. You don't need to place the bet on any day as long as it is before the deadline, meaning you can go get Reeve fast and come back another night with more to bet.
