With the Gust-developed turn-based item-crafting JRPG Atelier Ryza 3: Alchemist of the End & The Secret Key launching this week, the company has shared new artwork of the game’s protagonist, Reisalin Stout. To clarify, the title is now available in Japan, with the rest of the world receiving it in two days from now.

In case you missed it, check out our recent interview with the trilogy’s character designer and the protagonist’s voice actress.

We also recently interviewed the Head of Gust, Junzo Hosoi, about this conclusion to the Ryza trilogy and what fans can expect from the franchise’s future.

Lead writer Yashichiro Takahashi has returned to write this third entry. Taking place a year after Ryza 2, the titular protagonist and her friends discover newly appearing islands, called the Kark Isles, near their home of Kurken Island. The party decides to investigate these mysterious happenings but ends up finding a gate within some ruins, with a voice wanting to lead Ryza to the Code of the Universe.

Four regions will be explorable in an open field, all boasting seamless transitions. Keys will also be found and created; they all have unique effects for synthesis, battle, and exploration. Moreover, a total of 11 party members are confirmed, featuring returning and new characters.
