UPDATE

Regarding the various feedback and measures to be taken

Thank you for purchasing "Atelier Ryza 3: Alchemist of the End & the Secret Key."
We have investigated issues raised by you, and have considered how to resolve them.
We are making every effort to ensure that everyone will be able to play more comfortably, and will make further announcements as soon as supporting date is determined.


Scheduled for early fixes

1: Regarding the strong depth of field (DOF) in the game.

- Adjustment of the depth of field for the overall game.

Platforms:PlayStation®5/PlayStation®4/Nintendo Switch™/Steam®

The depth of field of the entire game has been reviewed and will be adjusted to make it more playable.
This adjustment will be made for all platforms.
Please note that this adjustment will result in a weaker depth of field for the game as a whole.

*This has been fixed in the update released on April 3rd.


To be supported sequentially

2: Upcoming Updates

- Additional Graphics Options

Platforms:PlayStation®5/PlayStation®4/Nintendo Switch™

We are planning to add graphics options for platforms that currently do not have them.
Since there are many adjustments required, we appreciate your patience as it will require some time for us to make the necessary changes.

*This has been fixed in the update released on June 22nd.


- Expanded depth of field settings in the graphics options

Platform:Steam®

The depth of field setting currently implemented in the Steam® version has two levels: ON and OFF.
We will revise the settings to enable more detailed settings.
We would appreciate your patience as it will take some time to make this adjustment as well.

*This has been fixed in the update released on June 22nd.
