Update News
Atelier Shallie Plus Alchemists of the Dusk Sea Synthesis Skills
Burlingame, Calif. — December 8, in the year of our
Lord 2016 – KOEI TECMO America today announced the
Synthesis system, as well as further information on the new
content featured within Atelier Shallie Plus: Alchemists of the
Dusk Sea. The game will launch on January 17, 2017 digitally for
the PlayStation®Vita handheld entertainment system, and in a
physical Collector’s Edition exclusively available through
NISA’s online store.
Atelier Shallie Plus: Alchemists of the Dusk Sea features a
Synthesis system which allows players to craft more efficient
items using ‘Synthesis Skills’. These abilities can be utilized
by adding certain materials to the cauldron which can bestow a
variety of effects upon the final item, such as granting extra
uses or increasing the resulting effect. All materials fall
under one of four elemental attributes: fire, water, wind and
earth. When combined successfully, these elements can activate a
‘Chain’ which further enhances items, resulting in bonuses
stronger than those obtained through executing standard
synthesis.
Players can make the most of their powerful new concoctions when
taking on the brand new boss battles that appear in Atelier
Shallie Plus: Alchemists of the Dusk Sea. The most prominent of
those bosses being the powerful ‘Beast King’s Champion’; a foe
of overwhelming strength which will require a skilled team
equipped with strong weapons to have any chance when facing off
with an enemy the likes of him!
Aside from tackling these new bosses, Shallistera and Shallotte
can partake in a wealth of other missions through the ‘Life
Task’ system in the game, now returning with new touch screen
functionality specifically for the PlayStation® Vita. By
progressing the story, characters will discover exciting new
missions to undertake. Completing these optional objectives will
reward the player with experience points, while Special Life
Tasks will pit players against powerful enemies to really pump
up the danger.
Atelier Shallie Plus: Alchemists of the Dusk Sea contains a
myriad of brand new costumes designed specifically for the Plus
version of Atelier Shallie, ensuring that any Alchemist can
craft their own unique style. Players can choose from the
Crimson Guard, Grand Pirate Dress, Lady Villain and Cobalt Saber
costumes to dress up their team, along with having access to all
of the downloadable content originally released for the
PlayStation® 3 version of the game.
