An older Atelier entry will get a contemporary replace

One of many earlier entries within the Atelier sequence is getting remade for present methods. Atelier Marie Remake reimagines the unique Atelier Marie: The Alchemist of Salburg, and it arrives for Change, PS4, PS5, and PC this summer time.

The information arrived yesterday in the course of the Japanese broadcast of the Nintendo Direct. Whereas it wasn’t proven within the English-language Direct, Koei Tecmo America has launched a website saying that the remake will arrive this summer time. We reached out and a Koei Tecmo consultant confirmed that this summer time is the worldwide launch window.

Right here’s the trailer from yesterday’s Direct:

The unique Atelier Marie was the primary within the now long-running Atelier sequence. First launched in 1997 for the PlayStation, then later ported to Sega Saturn and Home windows, it’s the origin of the sequence. It follows Marie’s quest to create one thing excellent, to face out in her class.

Again to the origin

With the Atelier sequence seeming to choose up steam within the west with every new entry, it’s neat to see Koei Tecmo return to its roots. Whereas Atelier Marie has seen many ports through the years, this beginning slice of the sequence hasn’t seen an official North American launch but.

For followers of the workshop-driven RPG sequence, this may very well be probability to see how it began, however with a recent replace and look that adheres nearer to latest entries like Ryza and Sophie.

In the meantime, Atelier Ryza 3 was initially slated to reach this month. However the staff not too long ago introduced it’s taking a one-month delay and pushing the third entry in Ryza’s journey again to March 24.
