Chronos Materia – New Information and Screenshots

Materia

Does the above artwork look familiar? If so, your mind may be drawn back to Gust’s long running Atelier series which has recently celebrated the release of its fifteenth installment (Atelier Escha & Logy) in Japan last month. This is however not an Atelier game but more of a side game currently in development by the studio for the Playstation Vita this September.

LIn this latest update from the company we are given a look at another of the games characters. As with many of the games characters, this new character has a name that can be romanized into English, and as with several of the other characters has a flower base to her name. This new character is named Rikorisu (リコリス) or Licorice which (as I found out thanks to Wikipedia) who is named after the root of the Glycyrrhiza Glabra or alternatively the common name of a particular type of confectionery.

Licorice has a positive and bright attitude and is very rarely sad. However despite this impression she is a realist even if she does not let this on to others.

In additional news announced for the game, we have had our first look at the games Homunculus system. As the name suggests, Homunculus are artificial life forms that produced through the alchemical abilities of the main characters will fight alongside you and can be customized considerably through class, voice and appearance. Some of the homonculus artwork is available below, with some of the classes ranging from the generic Witch and Spellsword classes to more unique ones such as Star Singers and Miko of the Moon.

We currently have no word on an international release, but I suggest keeping an eye on both Tecmo Koei and Nippon Ichi Software America for a potential release.
