In the statement, Hosoi apologized about Atelier Ryza 3 being delayed. He said that in order to make the game live up to expectations “as the culmination of Ryza’s story,” the team had to take some extra time. Some of Gust’s ambitions include large open field areas and improved graphics that express the qualities of the characters as much as possible. Thus, some more time is necessary to fine-tune things and add “polish” to ensure that players get the best possible experience. He then requested fans’ patience in waiting “just a bit more” for the game to come out.
Formally titled Atelier Ryza 3: Alchemist of the End & The Secret Key, the game takes place about one year after the conclusion of Atelier Ryza 2: Lost Legends & the Secret Fairy. Ryza and her friends receive word of a “mysterious archipelago”, and decide to journey there for their “last summer adventure”.
Atelier Ryza 3 was delayed to March 23, 2023 in Japan and March 24, 2023 elsewhere. It will appear on PS4, PS5, PC, and Nintendo Switch. A “Summer Look” DLC pack will be included with early purchases.
