Atelier Resleriana Receives Strong Debut Score in Latest Famitsu Review

Atelier Resleriana: The Red Alchemist & the White Guardian Earns 32/40 in Famitsu's Latest Review The highly anticipated Atelier Resleriana: The Red Alchemist & the White Guardian has officially received its first review score from Japan’s authoritative gaming publication, Famitsu.

Developed by Gust Corporation, the Atelier series’ newest installment launches as a follow-up to the successful Atelier Ryza trilogy, bringing the iconic blend of alchemy-focused RPG gameplay to the Nintendo Switch and additional platforms. In Famitsu’s latest issue (as reported by Gematsu), Atelier Resleriana was awarded a composite score of 32 out of 40, with the panel of four critics each granting it an 8/10.

This solid performance places it just behind Atelier Ryza 3, which received a 34/40 from the same magazine earlier in the year.

The consistent scoring underlines the franchise’s strong standing in the RPG genre and expectations for another captivating entry from Gust. A representative from Gust Corporation shared with media outlets that the development team is proud of how Atelier Resleriana advances both narrative and gameplay, emphasizing the team’s commitment to the series’ unique synthesis mechanics and character-driven storytelling.

The developer continues to uphold its tradition of engaging Japanese RPG experiences, with each new Atelier title attracting both devoted fans and newcomers seeking turn-based adventure on the Nintendo Switch and via the eShop. Alongside Atelier Resleriana, Famitsu also reviewed Bandai Namco’s Super Robot Wars Y, another major RPG that launched for the Nintendo Switch in the West at the end of August.

The strategy-focused title earned a 33 out of 40, with individual scores of 8, 8, 9, and 8, further underscoring a strong period for grid-based tactical RPGs on Nintendo’s hybrid platform. Gust’s legacy of innovation and sales success with franchises like Atelier Ryza, which has seen international acclaim and strong digital sales, sets high expectations for Atelier Resleriana.

As the release date approaches, the 32/40 score from Famitsu adds considerable momentum, assuring fans of another polished adventure in the beloved series. Players interested in Atelier Resleriana: The Red Alchemist & the White Guardian can look forward to more coverage and in-depth impressions as industry reviews roll in, with launch details and further gameplay insights expected to be detailed in upcoming Nintendo Direct presentations and through Gust’s official channels.
