During NIS America’s Cave Story 3D event we also spoke with Steven Carlton, Editor, to get some answers about DLC, how Qoga was localized, and since it was “liked” so many times we sent a request for Ar Tonelico HD remakes.

“I see… Men are really fond of their drills,” says Saki.

… then comment in this post! We’re going to be at NIS America’s press event this week and one of the things we’re doing is a fan powered Ar Tonelico Qoga: Knell of Ar Ciel interview.

“In one cutscene, male characters encourage a woman to strip…”

That’s what this trailer for Atelier Violet: The Alchemist of Gramnad 2 mentions as it briefly introduces three new characters in the PSP version.

Gust added three characters and events to go along with them in the PSP port of Atelier Violet.

The PSP version has new characters and one of them might be familiar to Atelier fans.

Confirming a retail leak, Gust announced Atelier Violet: The Alchemist of Gramnad 2 for PSP. The PSP port is slated for February 3, 2011 in Japan.

While Hyperdimension Neptunia and Ar Tonelico Qoga: Knell of Ar Ciel have specific dates in Europe, all we have in North America are vague “spring” timelines for those titles.

Tecmo Koei have got European Gust fans covered with another release date announcement.

Want to add a culinary wizard to your Atelier Totori party? Gust’s next downloadable content pack will let you do just that.

Violet is following in Judie’s footsteps to the PSP in an enhanced port of Atelier Violet: Alchemist of Gramnad 2.

Moments into Atelier Rorona, it’s evident that Gust wants to please Atelier fans. There’s a strong focus on item creation and collecting, plenty of opportunities to interact with other characters, and little focus on battling.

Gust is giving Atelier Totori fans a plate of fanservice by making Cecilia, Totori’s sister, a playable character in the PlayStation 3 game.
