Wahre Magie wartet!
Atelier Ryza 2: Lost Legends & the Secret Fairy wird an diesem Freitag veröffentlicht!

Welche dunklen Geheimnisse wird Ryza im 22. Atelier-Serienteil aufdecken?

KOEI TECMO Europe und Entwickler GUST Studios veröffentlichen am Freitag, den 29. Januar Atelier Ryza 2: Lost Legends & the Secret Fairy für Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5 (digital oder per kostenfreiem Upgrade der PS4-Version) und Steam.
Das spannende und emotionale JRPG spielt drei Jahre nach den Geschehnissen von Atelier Ryza: Ever Darkness & the Secret Hideout. Ryza begibt sich auf ein neues Abenteuer, auf dem sie die Geheimnisse alter Ruinen erforscht und versucht, die Wahrheit hinter einer verlorenen Legende zu erkunden. Auf ihrer Reise wird sie von zahlreichen neuen und alten Freunden begleitet, u.a. Ryzas neuem liebenswürdigen und pelzigen Begleiter „Fi“.

In ihrem kommenden Abenteuer erlernt Ryza neue Fähigkeiten, die ihr auf der Reise durch tödliches Terrain behilflich sind, beispielsweise kann sie schwimmen, an Pflanzen klettern und an magischen Seilen schwingen. Diese und weitere Fähigkeiten lassen Ryza die Ruinen noch besser und aktiver erkunden. Das spannende Echtzeit-Taktik-Kampfsystem ermöglicht fortan Kämpfe mit bis zu vier Gruppenmitgliedern (drei Hauptmitglieder und ein Sub-Mitglied). Charaktere können Gegenstände und Skills aneinanderreihen, um auch die tödlichsten Gegner dank der „Skill-Chain“ und „Item-Rush“ zu besiegen.

Eine weitere Neuheit in Ryza 2 ist das weiterentwickelte Synthesis-System, das es der Heldin erlaubt, einzigartige Gegenstände auf ihrer Reise zu sammeln und zu kombinieren. Das System wurde für neue Spieler zugänglicher gemacht, ermöglicht aber gleichzeitig erfahrenen Alchemisten, tiefer in die Künste einzutauchen und „Essence“ sowie „Evolution-Link“ zu nutzen. Eine weitere einzigartige Fähigkeit von Ryza ist „Research Ruins“. Mithilfe von Konversationen kann sie Gebiete in den Ruinen aufdecken und sie anschließend erkunden. In der Dunkelheit ist es ihr möglich, die wahren Mysterien aufdecken.

Fans, die Atelier Ryza 2: Lost Legends & the Secret Fairy innerhalb der ersten beiden Wochen nach Veröffentlichung erwerben, erhalten den Early-Purchase-Bonus: das Summer-Fashion-Costume-Set. Spieler mit einem alten Speicherstand aus Atelier Ryza: Ever Darkness & the Secret Hideout können das Classic-Costume-Set freischalten.
