[admin]

​

Atelier Ryza: Ever Darkness and the Secret Hideout will reach its fifth anniversary this week, after launching on PS4 back on 26th September, 2019. To mark the occasion, Koei Tecmo has announced the unprecedented decision to update the PS4 title and its two PS5 and PS4 sequels. Here's everything it has planned for the trio of titles:

Atelier Ryza: Ever Darkness and the Secret Hideout

• Added an auto-save feature.
• Added an option to fast forward Fatal Drive.
• Added an option to fast forward event scenes.
• Added an option to auto-play text during event scenes.
• Added graphics settings to the Options menu.
• Changed the keyboard and mouse controls on the Steam version.
• Made other small adjustments.

Atelier Ryza 2: Lost Legends and the Secret Fairy

• Added the "Very Easy" difficulty.
• Added an option to fast forward Fatal Drive.
• Added an option to fast forward event scenes.
• Adjusted auto-play speed of text during event scenes.
• Added graphics settings to the Options menu.
• Made other small adjustments.

Atelier Ryza 3: Alchemist of the End & the Secret Key

• Added the "Very Easy" difficulty.
• Added an option to fast forward Fatal Drive.
• Added a new landmark: Kala's Tent
• Changed the completion requirements for Klaudia's "Three Medicines" character quest.
• Other minor adjustments and bug fixes.

This is obviously very impressive support for the series so late in its lifecycle, especially with developer Gust's focus now an upcoming title Atelier Yumia: The Alchemist of Memories & the Envisioned Land, which is scheduled to release on 21st March, 2025. We suspect there'll be some discounts on the Atelier Ryza trilogy in the near future, too, so keep your eyes peeled for those.
