Because Atelier Arland series has received a game, it has been a very long time. If this confuses you, then do not be. Atelier series might get a lot of games but there are sub-series inside that have featured their own goodwill. Atelier Arland Trilogy released and was remastered for the PS4. It was in anticipation of Atelier Lulua, that’s the fourth match in the Arland series.
From the Atelier trilogy, players were introduced into Rorona, Meruru, and Totori. Atelier Lulua brings into a brand new protagonist in place that’s Rorona’s daughter. It begins after several years in order to establish and introduce the new characters since the story continues from the previous games. It is always pleasant to understand how programmer Gust is able to craft a personality for every single Atelier game, and Lulua is different.

Kingdom Hearts 3
The final entry in the Xehanort saga is almost here, releasing almost 14 years after Kingdom Hearts 2.
Vesperia also stars the most likable JRPG protagonist ever in Yuri, he’s just a guy who goes out and gets things done without complaining unlike the whiny teen boy protagonist of so many JRPGs nowadays. The rest of the cast is also a blast with some great interactions between them.
