Atelier Karia: new story trailer, digital pre-orders open and editions from €69.99 to €114.99 before the February 25, 2027 release

Karia is an amnesiac alchemist, a member of the Aladiss Pioneering Team, who explores Noctrem, the underworld of the continent of Aladiss, while investigating a phenomenon called the “mana withering”. The press release introduces Ernest, an automaton guarding an underground atelier; two hostile alchemists, the masked Crave Fortis and Lyvel Ventus; Signa, a young man seeking revenge; and Viktor von Duerer, commander of the Pioneering Team. The story takes place two years after Atelier Yumia. According to the official store description, Karia can eat and analyze almost anything, and her abilities, appearance and body shape change depending on what and how much she eats.

    • Bases: sub-bases and relay bases across each region connect to a main base; unlocking them adds furniture blueprints and bonuses for combat and exploration. 

    • Feature Modules: some furniture has effects, for example a Monster Statue raises drop rates for that monster type, and an Ingredient Collector gathers materials over time. 

    • Group Meals: cooking a member’s favorite dish raises friendship; close enough bonds unlock individual character endings. 

    • Standard Edition: €69.99 (also the Steam price in France on November 10). 

    • Digital Deluxe Edition: €79.99, adds the Colorful Collection (16 costume color variations) and the Snack Band accessory and recipe. 

    • Ultimate Edition: €114.99, adds a “Midnight Märchen” costume for Karia and the Season Pass (Swimsuit Set at launch, a recipe pack and two additional maps planned by the end of July 2027). 

    • Pre-order bonus (digital editions ordered by February 24, 2027): photo mode poses and frames. 

    • Early purchase bonus (purchase by March 10, 2027): the “Noctrem Pioneering Preparation Set”, with the “Crimson Requiem” costume for Karia and Training Badges (more experience after battles). 

    • Physical edition: reversible cover illustrated by character designer Benitama. Atelier Yumia save data unlocks an Atelier Yumia costume set.
