Koei Tecmo and Gust announced the Atelier Ryza series, also known as Atelier’s “Secret” trilogy, has surpassed two million copies sold worldwide. This major sales milestone was reached just days before the premiere of the new anime series.
Roughly 400,000 copies of Atelier Ryza series titles, including Atelier Ryza 3: Alchemist of the End & the Secret Key, have been sold since the prior sales update on March 16. Since March, various post-launch updates for Atelier Ryza 3: Alchemist of the End & the Secret Key were released. These updates likely helped boost awareness and sales for the franchise as the anime approaches its premiere on July 1. To celebrate the latest milestone, Koei Tecmo and Gust shared new artwork on behalf of Atelier Ryza series illustrator Toridamono.
