FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE


Palo Alto, USA (May 20, 2022) — Today, Level Infinite — global publisher of popular titles such as Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodhunt and Dune: Spice Wars — alongside developer Tourdog Studio, are excited to unveil their plans for the first anniversary of their mobile RPG, Alchemy Stars. Next month, the game, which combines thrilling RPG combat and high-quality anime-inspired art with an expansive story, is celebrating its anniversary with a series of updates, including new characters, in-game rewards, and an all-new gameplay system.


Take a Break from Battle In Cloud Gardens


The anniversary of Alchemy Stars brings news way to play! Cloud Gardens is a new feature where players can take respite from battle on their own farm! Create a personalized paradise by purchasing items at the shop and customizing them with decorations. Friends can visit each other’s gardens, share decorating ideas, and bond by enjoying activities together.


A New Heroine Arrives: Grand Marshal Reinhardt


The Grand Marshal of Illumina, Reinhardt herself, makes her glorious debut during the Alchemy Stars anniversary celebration! Her rebellious and unrestricted nature is known to all in Illumina, though those closest to her will come to know her as an affectionate and sacrificial leader. Reinhardt joins the protagonist in their battle against Forsakin and the Eclipsites, wielding her battle-tested Pentastar lance and powerful lightning-based abilities.


New Story Episodes: A Hero’s Return


With the launch of the Anniversary update, new and exciting Episodes will be added to Alchemy Star’s storyline. After spending many years away, Reinhardt, the Grand Marshal of Illumina’s defense force, was recalled back to Illumina. Together with her companion Carleen, she began the long journey. Meanwhile, during a routine overhaul of the Colossus, the mechanical giant suddenly and unexpectedly initiated its start-up protocol, forcing it to lose control and take to the skies. 


By tracking the Colossus through its internal systems, our heroes were able to determine its destination: the desolate valley of Eraveil, the home of the Colossus’s production factory. Just as the heroes ventured past the outskirts of Illumina on their quest to find the Colossus, they caught the attention of the Eclipsites. Determined to claim the Colossus for their own evil designs, they began to follow. Can our heroes protect the Colossus and evade the clutches of the Eclipsites?


Celebrate Alchemy Stars One-Year Anniversary with a Free Gift


In addition to Cloud Gardens and Reinhardt, players that log in during Alchemy Stars’ anniversary week will be gifted with fantastic in-game rewards, including Luambers, which can be exchanged for Aurorian recruitment, a free six-star Aurorian, and more!


“We’re immensely proud of the content we’ve produced during the first year of Alchemy Stars,” said the Art Director from Tourdog Studio. “Now, as we come to the first anniversary, we’re thrilled to reward the players who made this milestone possible with new ways to enjoy the game!”


Alchemy Stars seamlessly merges magic and technology in both its world and mechanics. The game’s innovative combat blends RPG, “Gacha”, and strategy elements, with each stage presenting a fresh challenge. Players can collect tons of unique characters, create their ideal party, and battle using the game’s unique tile-connecting gameplay. Matching the character’s attribute with the correct colored tiles allows players to unleash special attacks. Alchemy Stars further enhances its strategic gameplay by giving players the ability to change leaders multiple times, allowing for a more intriguing tactical experience.


In the world of Alchemy Stars, light and darkness collide. Aurorians and Caelestites have lived peacefully on the land of Astra for hundreds of years until they are forced to face a mysterious threat: dark creatures known as Eclipsites, sent to exterminate the Caelestites. While exploring the world of Astra, players will discover the six distinct factions in the game and will traverse a beautifully designed 2D world. Exotic locations include a bustling metropolis nestled beneath the world’s surface, a remote dwelling high atop Astra’s mountains, and other fascinating territories.


Alchemy Stars is available as a free download for Android and iOS devices via the Google Play Store and Apple Store.
