Publisher Koei Tecmo and developer Gust announced Atelier Ryza 3 is delayed.
Atelier Ryza 3: Alchemist of the End & the Secret Key will forgo its previously planned February date for one a bit later – March 23rd in Japan and March 24th worldwide.
Producer Junzo Hosoi said they need the extra time to “fine-tune the final touches” so that fans get the best experience possible.
When the highly-anticipated threequel does release, it’ll be available for Windows PC (via Steam), Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5.
Here’s a rundown on the previously-announced sequel:

Ryza and her friends are living their lives on Kurken Island when news of a sudden appearance of a mysterious group of islands in nearby waters arrives. To find a way to save her island, Ryza and her friends will set off on final adventure surrounding the “roots of alchemy.”
