Atelier Meruru: The Apprentice Of Arland has a wonderful cel-shaded artstyle.

The wordy title is currently being localised by NIS America, who previously handled the first and second entries in the series, Atelier Rorona: The Alchemist Of Arland and Atelier Totori: The Adventurer Of Arland. Phew.

In order to accompany the announcement, NIS America has released an in-depth trailer outlining the game's plot. You'll play as Meruru, a princess from the small kingdom of Arls, who must use alchemy to help her country to prosper. The game's anchored by a new "Development" mechanic, that alters the story progression depending on how you decide to improve the kingdom.

Catch the game's prologue trailer after the break.
