Original (7/27): Udon Entertainment has revealed that it’s working on English versions of Atelier Ryza: Ever Darkness & the Secret Hideout Official Visual Collection and Atelier Ryza 2: Lost Legends & the Secret Fairy Official Visual Collection. Both are planned for Spring 2023.
The books feature official artwork and character illustrations by Toridamono. Going in to more of the specifics, fans can look forward to rare and little-seen artworks, character illustrations, environment images, weapon and monster designs, and “some very surprising bonus materials”. There will even be exclusive interviews between Toridamono and executive producer Junzo Hosoi with the two discussing the Atelier series of games, and how it has changed with these newest titles.
Atelier Ryza: Ever Darkness & the Secret Hideout and Atelier Ryza 2: Lost Legends & the Secret Fairy are both currently available on Switch. We’ll let you know when the new books go up for pre-order.
Update (7/3): It’s been nearly a year, but we finally have an update. Both of these are now available for pre-order on Amazon here. Additionally, the retailer is listing a December 5, 2023 release date. That’s not been officially confirmed, but if it holds, these two Visual Collections will be dropping much later than initially anticipated.

While I can’t say I always understand why they feel compelled to, say, scratch at our brand-new barstools or knock over a cup of coffee that I just placed on the counter, perhaps the upcoming sandbox-exploration game Little Kitty, Big City will give me some answers, or at least let me empathize with them a bit more. I was able to play 45 minutes of Double Dagger Studio’s debut game at Summer Games Fest recently, and I’m already floored with it.
The LEGO Super Mario line is adding the Larry’s and Morton’s Airships Expansion Set to its offerings, according to retailer listings. It will be released on August 1, 2023.
The set includes brick-built versions of the two Koopalings’ airships. By using LEGO Mario, LEGO Luigi, or LEGO Peach in the cockpits, different sound effects can he heard and you can fight a virtual cannon battle. Morton’s airship takes things further as it can be opened to create a battle zone in a LEGO Super Mario level.
