Koei Tecmo America began streaming an English-subtitled trailer for Atelier Marie Remake ~The Alchemist of Salburg~, Gust's remake of Atelier Marie, the first game in Gust's long-running Atelier role-playing game series, on Tuesday. The trailer reveals the game's July 13 release date — the same release date as in Japan. (Koei Tecmo America had listed a July 17 date in some early materials, but acknowledged later that it was a typo.)

The original Atelier Marie: The Alchemist of Salburg game shipped for the PlayStation and Sega Saturn in 1997. The game shipped for PC in 2000, and on Dreamcast in 2001. A PlayStation 2 version shipped in 2005. Koei Tecmo Games released it for smartphones in February 2018.
The game marked the beginning of Gust's Atelier game series, whose key features include predominantly female main characters (only six of the games feature a male protagonist), a detailed crafting system themed around the main characters' talent for alchemy, and laid-back world and tone. The 24th and latest game in the series, Atelier Ryza 3: Alchemist of the End & the Secret Key (Ryza no Atelier 3 ~Owari no Renkinjutsushi to Himitsu no Kagi~), will ship for the PS4, PS5, and Switch on March 23, and on PC on March 24.
