KOEI TECMO Europe and developer Gust have just announced that the public demo of the eagerly awaited JRPG Atelier Yumia: The Alchemist of Memories & the Envisioned Land is officially available! Fans can now experience a preview of this new adventure, ahead of the full launch scheduled for 21 March 2025 on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One and PC Windows via Steam.
In the demo, players will assume the role of the young alchemist Yumia Liessfeldt, exploring the Aladissian Empire from the prologue to the start of the main mission "Pioneering the Ligneus Region". Players will be able to familiarise themselves with the new alchemical synthesis and combat systems, collect ingredients in the open field of the Ligneus region, build their own operational base, and meet the travel companions who will accompany Yumia on her mission. All progress made in the demo can be transferred into the full game at the time of purchase.
