Posted in: Anime News

KOEI Tecmo Europe and KOEI Tecmo America have made big announcements on Tuesday that they will release Gust’s two games for the PC platforms namely Nights of Azure and Atelier Sophie: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Book. Both games will be available via Steam on February 7 next year.

KOEI Tecmo America already released Altelier Sophie: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Book last June 7 for the PlayStation 4 platform. The PlayStation Vita version however was only released digitally.

The game was released in Japan in November 2015 for PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, and PS Vita platforms.

Here’s a description of the game as described by KOEI Tecmo:

Atelier Sophie: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Book follows the exploits of young novice Alchemist Sophie Neuenmuller, who discovers she is the owner of an enigmatic book imbued with a soul. This Mysterious Book seems to hold all the secrets to the art of Alchemy, even going on to become Sophie’s mentor. As Sophie experiments with Alchemy throughout the story she unravels the book’s forgotten memories and eventually sets out to uncover the strange tale of its origin. Uncover the mysteries of Alchemy that have been hidden away and forgotten alongside Plachta, the Mysterious Book, and experiment with the Synthesis system to learn new alchemy recipes at any pace!

Nights of Azure was released in North America on March 29. KOEI Tecmo Europe then followed on an April 1 release date. Unlike telier Sophie, the releases were only exclusive for the PlayStation 4. In Japan however, the game was released in PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, and PS Vita platforms.

Here’s a description of the game as described by KOEI Tecmo:

Marking a new action-oriented and dark direction for GUST titles, Nights of Azure tells a tragic tale of two friends faced with impossible decisions that will test their loyalty to their quest – and to each other. In the kingdom of Ruswal, very few people leave their homes after nightfall, let alone have the strength and skill to take on the powerful, azure-blooded demons that plague the island. One of the best among these brave few is Arnice, a knight of great skill and power, who is assisted by her friend and priestess Lilysse in a quest to rid the land of these monsters. However, they soon find out that the solution to the island’s problems might not be as simple as defeating enemies in battle.
