The next game in the Atelier series, first teased at Game no Dengeki Kanshasai in Akihabara last weekend, is Atelier Sharry: Alchemists of the Dusk Sea for PlayStation 3, this week’s Dengeki PlayStation reveals.

Due out on June 26 in Japan, standard edition will cost 6,800 yen, download edition 6,000 yen, and a Premium Box including a four-disc special music CD and drama CD will cost 9,800 yen.

Like Atelier Escha & Logy, the game will feature dual protagonists. This time, however, they’re both girls, and both are nicknamed Sharry (シャリ&#12540.

Shari Stella (シャリステ&#12521 (voiced by Kotori Koiwai)

(Pictured right on the cover.) A 16 year-old alchemist. She comes from a family that protects an ancient alchemic relic. She became head of the family after their death and must find a way to save her hometown which is on the verge of life and death. She sets out on her journey to the oasis town Strard (ステラー&#12489.

Her story: A story about the mystery of the world draws near. A story about the heart of dusk draws near. A story about the growth of a brave and diligent young girl.

Charlotte Eluminous (シャルロッテ･エルミナ&#12473 (voiced by Sumire Uesaka)

(Pictured left on the cover.) An 18 year-old, sub-par and poor alchemist. She runs Atelier on behalf of her late father in Strard (ステラー&#12489. However, she lacks aptitude and experience so she’s kind of a knock-off alchemist.

Her story: A story about an adventurous and ordinary comedy chick. A story about a seemingly life-sized “Atelier.” A story about the growth of a reckless and straightforward young girl.

The game’s story will progress by way of a new “Life Tasks” system, which provides players an objective, through which you’ll complete three steps (explore, mix, and battle), and when the task is cleared, the story will advance.

Came here expecting Atelier Talalibooboo. I am disappointed.

I will still buy Sharry's (such a stripper name) outing though.

I guess they're making up for Logy, all is forgiven.

That art is awesome, I still need to play Ayesha and Escha gdi!

Dual girls = awesome.

Charlotte's design and story sounds bad and completely off from how the Dusk world has been set up. Gust might surprise me but I'm not all too impressed with what I see here.

Shari on the other hand has me pretty hyped, story and design-wise.

 

[Pai Pai Master]

Shari's design is beautiful, love her!

a reminder to all that I'm in this for the alchemy and time management.

This series will be burned and buried ten feet into the ground before they even start conceiving assets to port it to PS4.
