Publisher Koei Tecmo and developer Gust have announced Atelier Resleriana: The Red Alchemist & the White Guardian. It will be a “completely offline” and original story in the world of Atelier Resleriana: Forgotten Alchemy and the Polar Night Liberator. It will launch sometime in 2025 for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam. A teaser trailer was also released. In the game, players “embark on this adventure to revive alchemy with a cast of charming characters!”
The game’s details:
Long ago, the kingdom of Lantarna prospered from the blessings of a white comet that passed overhead. The art of harnessing the comet’s blessings was called alchemy, and the practitioners of this art were known as alchemists.
However, when the comet disappeared and its blessings were no longer available, the use of alchemy gradually declined and was eventually forgotten.
Many years have passed, and in a corner of Lantarna two girls have a fateful meeting.
One is Resna, who has found hope in alchemy and is on her way to the Capital, aiming to travel to the World’s End where the source of the miracle is said to lie.
The other is Valeria, a girl who has lost her memories and now lives in the city while doing rough work as an adventurer for the Moonlight Society.
Behind them looms the shadow of the group known as the Polar Night Alchemists, a dark organization shrouded in mystery.
With different motives and ambitions intertwined, the two eventually come closer to the truth that lies dormant on the continent.
