14 DAY TRIAL // Fans of the Atelier series have been spoiled this start of the year, as GUST Studio now only launched the sequel to Atelier Ryza, but also revealed a brand new trilogy that will be coming to consoles and PC in just a few months.
Alongside KOEI TECMO America, developer GUST Studios revealed the upcoming Atelier Mysterious Trilogy Deluxe Pack, slated for launch on April 22 for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and PC (via Steam).
The upcoming trilogy includes the following games: Atelier Sophie: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Book DX, Atelier Firis: The Alchemist and the Mysterious Journey DX, and Atelier Lydie & Suelle: The Alchemists and the Mysterious Paintings DX.
Although they are older Atelier games, GUST Studios will include a large amount of the previously released DLC for the titles in the pack, as well as all-new content for the DX versions, such as a special digital artbook, photo modes, and the option to speed-up battles.
It's important to mention that this release marks the first time that Atelier Sophie and Atelier Firis will be playable on the Nintendo Switch. GUST Studios confirmed that the Atelier Mysterious Trilogy will be available for purchase as individual titles or together in a specially priced Deluxe Pack containing all three games.
The first title, Atelier Sophie: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Book DX, follows the adventures of young novice alchemist Sophie Neuenmuller, who discovers she is the owner of an enigmatic book imbued with a soul. Atelier Firis: The Alchemist and the Mysterious Journey DX is the second entry in the ‘Mysterious’ saga, following the adventures of the enthusiastic Firis Mistlud and her loving older sister Liane Mistlud.
Last but not least, the conclusion to the Mysterious Trilogy, Atelier Lydie & Suelle: The Alchemists and the Mysterious Paintings DX, follows the tale of alchemist twins: the reserved but caring Lydie Marlen, and the eccentric and carefree Suelle Marlen. The DX version of the game introduces a new painting that connects Lydie and Suelle to the world of Nelke & the Legendary Alchemists.
