New Atelier Rorona: Origin Story of the Alchemist of Arland - oprainfall

The upcoming remake of Gust’s PlayStation 3 title Atelier Rorona: The Alchemist of Arland has received a release date. Titled New Atelier Rorona: Origin Story of the Alchemist of Arland, the game will reportedly go on sale for PlayStation 3 and Vita systems November 21st according to Rakuten. If you plan to grab yourself a copy of the Japanese release, be sure to get your order in early. Initial copies of the game will come bundled with a redemption code good for one “Peach Vacation” costume download. Sounds like it’ll be just the thing to bring a little summer into those chilly November days.

New Atelier Rorona promises plenty of new and interesting tweaks to the original title’s gameplay and overall design, so longtime fans of its first iteration will have plenty to look forward to. Atelier Rorona: The Alchemist of Arland first released in Japan in 2009 and made its way to America and Europe in 2010. There’s no news yet on if or when New Atelier Rorona will find its way to Western shores.
