The gaming community is buzzing with excitement as Atelier Yumia: The Alchemist of Memories and the Envisioned Land, a long-awaited sequel from KOEI Tecmo America and Gust, is set to hit consoles next week on March 21. You won’t want to miss this one!
In the world of everyday life, we create and collect memories, crafting our very own “Souls” in the process. This game takes you on an unforgettable journey across a devastated continent, guided by a protagonist taking bold steps toward a new future. The central theme here is “memory.” There are moments when facing our past becomes unavoidable, and confronting our memories is a challenge we all must rise to.
Each memory we carry, from triumphs to setbacks, feeds into our future and ultimately molds who we become. Atelier Yumia tells the story of Yumia and her friends as they brave their past and push forward, despite uncertainties, along the paths they choose to trust.
The plot unwinds in the Aladissian Empire, a place that once prospered on its continent through advanced alchemy, maintaining its hold against rival nations. But a sudden, mysterious disaster brought the empire crumbling down. Fast forward several centuries, and alchemy has been transformed in the public eye from a source of innovation to a “dangerous art,” now marked as “evil” and “taboo.”
In this hazardous world, a lone alchemist named Yumia Reisfelt dares to tread. Since losing her mother three years prior, she’s learned of her family’s alchemical heritage, leading her to question many things. What really caused Aladiss’s destruction? Why did alchemy fall from grace? Is it truly malevolent? Determined to uncover the continent’s lost history, Yumia sets off on a journey, seeking answers to these questions.
Atelier Yumia’s gameplay offers exciting features:
