Atelier Resleriana: Forgotten Alchemy and the Polar Night Liberator Global Announces EOS

Atelier Resleriana: Forgotten Alchemy and the Polar Night Liberator's global server is shutting down. Koei Tecmo and Akatsuki Games announced the End of Service (EOS) for the global version of their RPG, just over a year after its January 2024 launch. The Japanese version, launched in September 2023, will continue operation.

Atelier Resleriana EOS Date:

The global version will shut down on March 28th, 2025—ironically, the same month the Japanese version celebrates its 1.5th anniversary. Global players will conclude their journey at Chapter 21 (Part 1), while Japanese players progress to Chapter 22 (Part 2).

In-game purchases are already disabled, but remaining Lodestar Gems can be used until the shutdown. Koei Tecmo promises new content and events leading up to the closure. The global version's first anniversary was celebrated on January 25th, 2025.

Reasons for Shutdown:

Developers cited an inability to maintain a satisfactory player experience. The game struggled to gain traction, with player complaints surfacing about the gacha system, gameplay, monetization, and excessive power creep appearing just months after launch. These factors ultimately led to the decision to end service for the global version.

The game remains available on the Google Play Store for those wishing to play before the shutdown. For a different mobile gaming experience, consider checking out the current Sky: Children of the Light Lunar New Year 2025 event.
