Thinking outside the box, Atlus will sponsor the Haas racing team, with two of the cars competing at this week's F1 Singapore Grand Prix bearing the faces of characters from the impending Metaphor: ReFantazio , the next epic JRPG from the team behind Persona . Spotted by Eurogamer , while it might seem like a strange pairing, a connection exists to explain the occurrence. One of Metahphor's party members is the red-haired elven knight Hulkenberg, and Nico Hülkenberg is a driver for the Haas F1 team.

Synergy! Fellow Haas member Kevin Magnussen will also get in on the action, with Metaphor's unnamed protagonist adorning the other vehicle. Atlus explains why this collaboration makes sense without mentioning the convenient coincidence we just noted: "Overcoming fear and anxiety is a central theme in Metaphor: ReFantazio, and being featured on the racecars of Nico Hülkenberg and Kevin Magnussen - drivers known for defying the impossible - perfectly mirrors our game, where players beat the odds in their chase for the crown in the Royal Tournament. Partnering with MoneyGram Haas F1 Team ahead of the Singapore GP is a natural fit, as the high-stakes nature of Formula 1 aligns seamlessly with the competitive election mechanic in the game, where players gain followers in their own race for victory.
