The eagerly awaited follow-up, Atelier Yumia: The Alchemist of Memories and the Envisioned Land by KOEI Tecmo America and Gust, is set to hit consoles next week on March 21. It’s definitely one you’ll want to explore!
We live each day, weaving memories that shape our "Souls." This journey unfolds across a crumbling continent, detailing the steps Yumia takes toward an uncertain future. The core of this tale revolves around "memory," compelling us all to face our past and confront our "memories."
These memories, both our victories and setbacks, serve as the nurturing force for our future selves, molding who we become. Atelier Yumia narrates the story of Yumia and her companions as they courageously tackle their past, forging onward despite the doubts that linger.
The backdrop of this narrative is the Aladissian Empire, a once-thriving continent that mastered alchemy, setting itself apart from neighboring nations. Yet, a sudden and mysterious disaster brought an end to its era. Fast forward a few centuries, and alchemy is now seen as a "taboo," considered a "dangerous art" that only leads to destruction.
In this forbidden and hazardous land, Yumia Reisfelt, a solitary alchemist, takes her first steps. Three years previously, she lost her mother in a tragic accident and discovered her lineage was steeped in alchemy, prompting a myriad of questions. What led to Aladiss’ downfall? What transformed alchemy into a "taboo"? Is alchemy inherently "evil"? Driven by a desire for truth, Yumia begins her quest to uncover this lost history.
