Press release:
Hertfordshire – Today KOEI TECMO Europe officially launched “Nelke & the Legendary Alchemists: Ateliers of the New World” for the PlayStation 4 Computer Entertainment System, Nintendo Switch, and digital-only on Windows PC via Steam.
Celebrating the Atelier series 20th Anniversary, fans are invited to enjoy the exciting new gameplay experience of building the barren lands of Westwald into a prosperous city.
Nelke & the Legendary Alchemists: Ateliers of the New World drops players into the shoes of Nelke von Lestamm, a young noblewoman fascinated by the ancient legend of the Sage of Granzweit; a legend which is said to bestow great power onto those who discover the mysterious Granzweit Tree.
After hearing a rumour that the Granzweit Tree might lie within her father’s lands near the small village of Westwald, Nelke begs her father to search for it, but her father only grants her permission on one condition – that she becomes governor of the area and develop Westwald into a prosperous city.
As Nelke works hard to enhance the lands of Westwald, she will need to call upon the help of the many alchemists that settle in the town – including those from the Atelier Marie, Atelier Elie, Atelier Lilie, Atelier Iris, Mana-Khemia, Arland, Dusk, and Mysterious sub-series.
Throughout the week players will have to choose if they will spend their time on gathering resources, creating sellable items or developing their town further, but on the weekends, they will be able to enjoy their days off building their relationships with the many charismatic alchemist residents!
To celebrate the launch of Nelke & the Legendary Alchemists: Ateliers of the New World a special early purchase DLC pack is available: The Town Building 5-Item Set Season Pass.
This pack, available for the first 2 weeks from launch, contains the Gust 25th Anniversary Background Music Packs 1 & 2, the Atelier 20th Anniversary Appreciation House, the ‘Mysterious Alchemist’ Statue, and an additional resident ‘Gust-chan’.
