Wonder how Nelke will be able to build a town? Worry no more! Koei Tecmo America and Gust Studios revealed new details describing the gameplay flow of the upcoming title, Nelke & the Legendary Alchemists: Ateliers of the New World.

 Nelke & the Legendary Alchemists: Ateliers of the New World

Similar to past Atelier titles, Nelke and four other party members will be tasked to explore the world in order to find alchemy ingredients. Every move you make depletes the Action Gauge. If you aren't careful, you might miss out on good items or miss out on other rewards if you deplete the Action Gauge too fast. You also might miss out on specific abilities that require the Action Gauge, such as digging for resources with a shovel.

Roaming the world for alchemy ingredients also puts Nelke in danger of enemies. The five-person party, which gives you the pick of over 100 characters throughout the Atelier series, is split into two groups: attack and support. As the characters perform attack and support skills, the party builds what's called a Burst Gauge. Building this gauge allows for the characters to unleash brutal attacks against enemies.

And let's not forget the last gauge, the Drive Gauge! Each character has their own Drive Gauge. Each attack, whether normal or via the Burst Gauge, builds the gauge. The higher the Drive Gauge, the faster the character's normal attacks.
