Atelier Sophie 2: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Dream releases on February 25th


KOEI Tecmo has announced the sequel to Atelier Sophie: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Book, Atelier Sophie 2: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Dream. In order to celebrate this announcement, the company released the game’s debut trailer that you can find below.

Atelier Sophie 2: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Dream continues the story of Sophie and Plachta’s many adventures.

“After leaving Sophie’s hometown of Kirchen Bell, the pair discovers a huge tree identical to one that Plachta had seen in a dream, and as they get closer, a mysterious vortex pulls them inside. Sophie awakens alone in a curious new world called Erde Wiege, and it’s not long before she hears about an alchemist named Plachta that lives on the outskirts of town. Shockingly, when Sophie arrives at the atelier, she meets a young alchemy enthusiast named Plachta, and even though the alchemist shares the same name as her friend, she doesn’t recognize Sophie. What other surprises await Sophie on this journey? As the adventure continues, Sophie meets aspiring alchemist, Ramizel Erlenmeyer, who willingly agrees to help her in her time of need. The narrative elegantly unfolds with a charming new visual style that combines the art of the Mysterious sub-series with the high-quality graphics and animations featured in 2021’s Atelier Ryza 2: Lost Legends and the Secret Fairy.”

The game will introduce a new battle system. As soon as players encounter an enemy in the field, the battle begins instantly without any load times or separate screens. This new system aims to allow battles to flow seamlessly. In addition, battle parties now consist of six members, with three in the front and three in the back, to form two teams that co-operate in multi-linked turn-based battles. This new battle system promises to open up a wide range of exciting combat strategies that players can utilise to take out their foes.

Atelier Sophie 2: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Dream will release on February 25th, 2022. And yes, I am almost certain that the game will have the same issues with Atelier Ryza 2.

Enjoy!
