In a series first, two key illustrators were involved in the making of Atelier Sophie: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Book – NOCO and Yuugen. Their distinctive work brings the in-game world to life and creates a dynamic environment where time, weather, and relationships play a key role in the adventures of the young new Alchemist and her trusted allies.

A variety of new screenshots, and a gameplay video, were revealed today showcasing the Dollmake feature, where players are able to create new bodies for Plachta, the Mysterious Book.
