Development

During a broadcast by Gust in March 2018, it was revealed that a new Atelier was in development and that it was going to be announced in May or June.[3]. Keisuke Kuchi, the producer, said that it was going to be "a different experience" than usual and that it was going to have a "festive feeling".

In June 2018, an Atelier character popularity poll featuring 40 of the characters from all the main titles in the series was launched in Koei Tecmo's website. After voting in the poll, a teaser was shown with all the characters and the following text: "A new development for the Atelier series on June 14, 2018!? To a 'new land', together with them."[4][5]

In June 12, 2018, two days prior to the expected announcement date, the magazines Famitsu and Dengeki revealed Nelke and the Legendary Alchemists as the next Atelier game, to be released in 2018.[6] It was also mentioned that this game will be the first one of a "Legendary Alchemists" spin-off sub-series.

NOCO, who previously worked in the Mysterious trilogy, will be in charge of the illustrations of this game.

On 13 June 2018, Koei Tecmo America announced that the game was going to be released outside Japan for the PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch and Microsoft Windows (via Steam).[7][1]
