Polar Night Liberator Unveils Atelier Resleriana's Arcane Secrets

Atelier Resleriana: Forgotten Alchemy and the Polar Night Liberator's Global Server to Shut Down

Sad news for global players of Atelier Resleriana: Forgotten Alchemy and the Polar Night Liberator. Koei Tecmo and Akatsuki Games have announced the end of service (EOS) for the game's global version, effective March 28th, 2025. This comes just over a year after its January 2024 launch, highlighting the game's struggles to gain traction in the global market. Interestingly, the Japanese version, launched in September 2023, remains operational and is even preparing for its 1.5th anniversary in March 2025.

The EOS Date and Final Events

The global server closure coincides ironically with the Japanese server's anniversary celebration. In-game purchases are already disabled, but players can still utilize any remaining Lodestar Gems. Koei Tecmo promises additional content and events leading up to the shutdown, allowing players a final opportunity to enjoy the game.

Reasons Behind the Closure

The developers cited an inability to maintain a satisfactory player experience as the primary reason for the EOS. The game faced criticism almost immediately after launch, with players expressing significant concerns about the gacha system, gameplay mechanics, and aggressive monetization strategies. These factors, coupled with perceived power creep, ultimately contributed to the game's underperformance and subsequent closure.

While the global version is ending, players can still access the game on the Google Play Store to experience the final events and say farewell. Alternatively, those seeking a new mobile gaming experience might consider exploring other titles, such as the currently running Lunar New Year event in Sky: Children of the Light.
