Ar Tonelico Qoga: Knell Of Ar Ciel Set For Next SpringSiliconera readers know their silhouettes! NIS America is bringing Ar Tonelico III to North America under the name Ar Tonelico Qoga: Knell of Ar Ciel.

 

Ar Tonelico Qoga has a revamped battle system, which is more action packed than its predecessors. You can run on the field and tap to the rhythm of the music to power up song magic.

 

The third and final game in the Ar Tonelico series takes place in Sol Cluster. Clustania’s machinations are to enslave humans with the power of song magic from Reyvateils. Instead of siding with Clustania these two key Reyvateils join Aoto and fight back. The cosmosphere system is back and you’ll get to know the Reyvateils in your group on a deeper level and boost their skills by diving into their minds. As you progress through the game, your actions determine which ending to the Ar Tonelico series you’ll see.

 

Ar Tonelico Qoga: Knell of Ar Ciel is scheduled to come out in spring 2011.

    Deathsmiles has nothing on it. (I've played all the said games from end to end, AT3 included.)

    Wearing gothic lolita clothing is nothing compared to the themes, which are general themes as well as a series of particular scenes.

    There's a degree of interaction which goes much further than a sprite wearing a certain set of clothing and flying high enough to see under your skirt.

    I wouldn't be surprised if the ESRB may advise the application as was may go into bounds they may not want to go into (Most likely the AO rating) and NISA would make sure they don't go there.

    In a way it's funny, because well, people were worried about the non existent fanservice in Totori, which makes me wonder how people are going to see something like this…

    Can't wait to get my hands on the game.

    A! R! T-O-N! E-L-I-C-O! Ar Tonelico! Bath song anyone? ;D

    Seriously though, we all knew it was coming but I'm stoked nonetheless.

    Yeah, uh… I just watched a couple of videos (I was on something of a media blackout for a while with it) and it makes me REALLY uncomfortable how young Saki and Finnel look in 3D. It wouldn't bother me in Atelier because it's generally really, really tame, but Ar tonelico is innuendo incarnate.

    I was actually relieved when Ar tonelico 2 took a turn for the better and made Luca and Cloche look more adult after the whole Misha fiasco in the first, which itself wasn't quite as creepy as this for spoiler reasons. I mean… I don't want to sound like a prude or anything, but… Really, Gust?

    I guess I'll still get it. I want to know what happens with Ar Ciel, after all, but I'm none too keen on the heroines' designs and the battle music is all horrible. :(

    For Ar Tonelico 3 Qoga mean end or demise in hymnos ( the language used by reyvateil to sing ), and the tower's name is Sol Cluster ( it was Sol Cielo for AT1 and Sol Marta for AT2 ), for Ar ciel I'm not sure but I think it's simply the name of the world where lie the 3 towers ( I'm not sure if you were wondering about Qoga or Ar Ciel ).

    I'm wondering what knell mean, I have searched on word reference for a translation in my nattive language but it doesn't know this word as well^^'

    I am not sure of how I should feel on the title. I never liked the western titles – Melody of Blah, but after seeing this I am not sure if I am going to like AT: Melody of Blah, ATII: Melody of Blah, then AT Qoga: Knell of Ar Ciel. It just lacks the set consistency not to mention it is still off from the original title's literal translation.

    That being said, I played through the second game because it was the sequel to the greatest RPG to date. Sadly, the second game was incredibly disappointing on many levels. I'll only play the third just to see it to the end. If it is better than the second I would deem it a great success, but that wouldn't be hard to accomplish.

    On another note, I am glad the series is ending. Even if games in the Final Fantasy series are stand alone I would never want this to become never ending.

    well, ar tonelico does have its own language

    The towers are simply “Ar tonelico”. Yes, all of them. Sol Marta is a relay station to the first tower (because the second tower isn't a server itself… the only server in that region is Infel Phira). Sol Ciel and Sol Cluster are regions where the Ar tonelico towers are located, like Metafalss.
