posted on by Crystalyn Hodgkins
Gust began streaming a gameplay video on Monday for its Atelier Firis: The Alchemist and the Mysterious Journey role-playing game. The video previews the gameplay for the game's PlayStation Vita version.
Gust previously streamed three gameplay videos on October 21. The first video previews a boss battle, the second video previews synthesis, and the third video previews town events.
Koei Tecmo Games will release Atelier Firis: The Alchemist and the Mysterious Journey in Japan on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita on November 2 after a delay. Koei Tecmo America confirmed last month its plans to release the game in North America and Europe.
Koei Tecmo describes the game:
The second part in the Mysterious trilogy, Atelier Firis, follows the journey of a young alchemist through an exciting and colorful world. While Firis travels, she learns more about synthesis and alchemy, meets interesting people, and amplifies the feeling of exploration with the immense expansion of the world map!
The game stars:
- Kaede Hondo as Firis Mistlud
- Azusa Satō as Liane Mistlud
- Sayaka Kaneko as Ilmeria Von Leinweber
- Junta Terashima as Revy Berger
- Ari Ozawa as Drossel Weissberg
- Taiten Kusunoki as Angriff Dahlmann
- Hiroki Touchi as Kald Lau
- Yuka Aisaka as Sophie Neuenmuller
- Yuka Iguchi as Plachta
- Seiichirō Yamashita as Oskar Behlmer
The game will allow players to choose clothes among a large wardrobe to suit the environment. Characters will be better able to explore sunny areas when wearing cool clothes. Players will be able to collect new recipes, and in-game actions may give Firis a related recipe. The game's item synthesis system will have "catalysts" that can be combined with normal item synthesis to produce powerful effects.
Koei Tecmo America released the game's predecessor, Atelier Sophie: The Alchemist and the Mysterious Book, for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita on June 7.
