Koei Tecmo removes Atelier Resleriana: The Red Alchemist & The White Guardian trailer, and have announced the game will no longer be coming to the PS4 outside of Japan.
There are many 2025 Japanese RPG titles to look forward to, even though most are from series you may not have heard of before.
With Tokyo Game Show in Full Swing, Koei Tecmo announced Atelier Resleriana: The Red Alchemist & The White Guardian.
I think this is similar to Capcom's strategy with Monster Hunter. The new main game in the franchise is Atelier Yumia, but it's too graphically intense for weaker platforms. So they made another new game that is lighter to cater to those platforms as well, which is this new Atelier Resleriana.
I really don't think that's the case. The only difference in platform is Xbox. Yumia is also on the Switch
I was under the assumption that Yumia wasn't going to be on the Switch. So, yeah, the Capcom strategy doesn't fit.
Honestly, I have no clue what they are doing here. I love this series, but having two main titles from different subseries in the same year seems a bit much given the level of success that Atelier games usually achieve.
Atelier has been doing a lot better lately tho, so maybe they're testing the waters.

Just wasn't worth the investment I guess.
