Atelier Yumia update 1.2.0 is now available with Legendary difficulty for battles and more

Atelier Yumia: The Alchemist of Memories & the Envisioned Land has been updated to add in the Legendary difficulty for battles and more for all platforms.

This Atelier Yumia update is now live as version 1.20 on PlayStation, 1.2.0 on Nintendo Switch, 1.0.2.0 on Steam, and should be 1.0.2.0 on Xbox when it goes live there. When you update and boot up the game, you will be presented with a tutorial window with the new Legendary Difficulty for battles added. This increases all enemy stats and slowly reduces party member HP while fighting in manabound areas. Enemies will drop better ingredients and Trait Crystals on this difficulty. Beyond the new difficulty, this update mentions a building expansion and many fixes.

The 1.2.0 update today follows the latest 1.1.0 Photo Mode update. Read about that here. If you missed it, Koei Tecmo recently announced that Atelier Yumia has sold over 300k units worldwide making it the fastest selling game in the series. Atelier Yumia is also getting a Tekken 8 collaboration in the future.

Atelier Yumia: The Alchemist of Memories & the Envisioned Land is out now worldwide for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC (Steam). You can read our full review here, console comparison feature here, and PC port feature here.
