Atelier Iris gets Euro date News

PlayStation 2 News by Tom Bramwell

25 January, 2006

KOEI's confirmed that it'll be bringing Atelier Iris: Eternal Mana to Europe this March 17th. Good news for PS2-owning fans of traditional Japanese RPGs.

We rather liked Atelier Iris' US outing. It's "old-school in look, character and budget," we said, but "if it charms you, you'll be instantly hauled into its delightful world, desperate to help out in anyway you can - whether that's by supporting the lowliest street trader or tackling the powers and principalities that threaten its very existence."

It's all about a young alchemist, see, who can extract elements from objects and use them to create new stuff, assuming he has enough help from tiny little chaps called mana - and a lot of your fun will be had creating interesting stuff for the local shopkeep to flog on your behalf.

If that sounds promising to you, see what else we said about it.

Of course not, Rizo. Atelier is an RPG, Disgaea a TRPG. World of difference really.

Blerk, why haven't Eurogamer made you their 'obscure Japenese RPG game reviewer' yet?!

@cosmopolitan: how's Diablo 2? Stopped playing at 1.08, heard the game got much more hard right now... World of Warcraft was good for a while, but Diablo 2 is so much more exciting...

It's totally addictive. But I warned you. :-)
And it's much better with the expansion pack installed. But I do not play online, if that's what you mean by 'hard right now'..
