Metaphor: ReFantazio Is Giving Away Custom Xbox Controllers – Here's How To Win

If you've been diving into Metaphor: ReFantazio and want something to show for it beyond just your save file, Xbox has a pretty sweet sweepstakes running that's worth your attention. They're giving away five custom Metaphor: ReFantazio Xbox Wireless controllers, and honestly, the design looks solid, featuring the game's protagonist Will and his fairy companion Gallica on what's otherwise a standard Xbox controller.

Here's the deal: the sweepstakes runs from May 21st through May 29th, 2025, so you've got a tight window to get in on this. You can enter two ways - either through X (formerly Twitter) or Bluesky. For X, you need to follow @Xbox and repost one of their promotional posts that includes "#MetaphorRefantazioSweepstakes." For Bluesky, it's follow @xbox.com and quote post one of their promotional posts with the same hashtag. Pretty straightforward, and you can actually enter on both platforms if you want to double your chances.

What Should I Play Next If I Enjoyed Metaphor ReFantazio?

In the off-chance you've already played the Persona series before ReFantazio, then I recommend checking out Eternights. It's an action RPG with the same social elements as ATLUS' games with fun character interactions, decent (if not somewhat clunky) combat, and a story that hits the feels just right.

Everything About Xbox’s Metaphor: ReFantazio Controller Giveaway

The controllers themselves aren't anything revolutionary, they're standard Xbox Wireless controllers with custom graphics applied. Microsoft's pricing them at about $60 retail value, which tracks with what you'd expect for a regular controller. But here's the thing: these aren't going to be sold anywhere. They're exclusive to this sweepstakes, so if you're into Metaphor: ReFantazio or just like having unique gaming gear, this is your only shot at getting one.

What's nice is that Microsoft kept the entry process fair. One entry per person on each platform, so no one's gaming the system with multiple accounts. They're selecting three winners from X entries and two from Bluesky entries, which seems like a reasonable split given the user bases. Winners get notified around June 2nd via direct message, and you've got 120 hours to respond with your info, plenty of time unless you're completely offline.

The usual sweepstakes restrictions apply: you need to be 18 or older, live in an Xbox-supported region (excluding Russia and a few other countries), and can't be an employee of Microsoft or their partners. Your account also needs to be public on X, and on Bluesky you need to allow direct messages from users you follow. Nothing too demanding there.

One thing to keep in mind, if you win, Microsoft gets the right to use your name and country for promotional stuff, which is standard for these kinds of giveaways. The controllers ship within about eight weeks of winner confirmation, so don't expect it to show up immediately. You can take a look at the terms and conditions of the sweepstakes if you're interested in finding out more.

Bottom line: if you're already playing Metaphor: ReFantazio or just want a unique controller for your collection, this sweepstakes is a no-brainer. It takes maybe 30 seconds to enter, the odds aren't terrible with only five winners total, and you're getting something genuinely exclusive. Worth a shot, especially since the game's been getting solid buzz and these controllers are definitely going to a bragging point at your next house party.
