The thrilling and emotional
JRPG picks up three years after Atelier Ryza: Ever Darkness & the Secret
Hideout, as Ryza sets out in an all-new quest to discover the secrets behind the
ancient ruins and the truth behind the lost legends. Joining Ryza on her journey
is a host of new and old friends from the franchise, along with Ryza’s adorable
and enigmatic new furry companion known as “Fi”.
Adding to the fun and adventure, Ryza now has all new dynamic abilities to help
her navigate across the deadly terrain, including the ability to swim
underwater, use plants to climb walls, and even swing on a magical rope! These
and other abilities allow Ryza to explore various areas and ruins more fully and
actively. In addition, the thrilling real-time tactics battle system has been
powered up to include up to four members (three main party members plus one
sub-member), with characters able to link multiple skills and items in a row to
defeat even the deadliest of enemies thanks to the new Skill Chain and Item Rush
techniques!
