Taking place ten years after the beginning of Atelier Ayesha: The Alchemist of Dusk and six years after Atelier Escha & Logy: Alchemists of the Dusk Sky, Gust's Atelier Shallie: Alchemists of the Dusk Sea is the third and final part of the Dusk subseries of Atelier titles. Publisher KOEI Tecmo has confirmed that the title will be arriving to end the saga in North America and Europe in March.
In Atelier Shallie: Alchemists of the Dusk Sea players chose to play as either the reserved, mission-focused Shallistera, daughter of a tribal leader who embarks on voyage to find a cure for her ailing father or ambitious, energetic Shallotte, who has been struggling to bring success to the alchemy workshop since the passing of her father. While their personalities and appearance are drastically different, they both share the nickname “Shallie” and uncover the reasoning why along each of their journeys
Not only will the girls have their own individual stories, there will also be multiple endings. Gust has made several improvements to the title, such as the new Quest system where players can choose to perform only the actions needed to further their progress, or choose to take on side quests to earn more points. There will also be a 360 degree camera to allow for players to have more freedom.
As well as the new trailer, take a look at the first English language screenshots to be released for the title.
Atelier Shallie: Alchemists of the Dusk Sea is due to be released on Playstation 3 on March 10th in North America and March 13th in Europe.
