Koei Tecmo and Gust will reveal a new Atelier title on August 8

Koei Tecmo and Gust have announced that they will reveal a new title in the Atelier series on August 8. The announcement will be made on a live stream that will be available on YouTube at 21:00 JST (12:00 UTC).

The Atelier series has been Gust's most active RPG franchise, with its new titles released almost every year. Most recently, Gust completed a remake of Atelier Marie: The Alchemist of Salburg which Koei Tecmo published simultaneously worldwide (albeit digital-only in the West) on July 13.

The recent Atelier Ryza/Secret trilogy concluded with the release of Atelier Ryza 3: Alchemist of the End and the Secret Key last March. While nowadays it wouldn't be a surprise to see a fourth title for the sub-series in a similar fashion to Atelier Sophie 2 or Atelier Lulua, it remains to be seen whether the upcoming title will indeed start a new trilogy or not.

In Japan, the announcement also comes with a sweepstake being held by the Atelier series' official Twitter/X account. For the whole week leading to the announcement stream, Japanese users can follow and retweet the specified tweet for a chance to become one of the 25 winners getting merchandise branded with the Atelier series' 25th anniversary. Gust will also hold another Japan-exclusive sweepstake involving signatures from the new game's voice actors after the stream.
