Blurry Atelier Rorona Scan is Blurry, Mentions 3D and a Release Date

The blurry photo you are seeing above is actually a mini-article on the recently announced Atelier Rorona for PlayStation 3. Rorona is the 11th official entry into Gust's Atelier series, and the first title to officially make the jump to 7th generation hardware.

If you recall last time we talked about this, there was some worry over whether the game will actually take advantage of the PS3's hardware, or if it would just be another Disgaea 3 underachievement fest all over again.

Well, unfortunately, the above scan is too blurry to properly read or see what's going on in the provided screenshots.

However, the one-paragraph article does mention that the fields, at least, will be 3D, and that the game will be "fully-voiced."

Gust has been messing with basic 3D fields since the original Ar Tonelico, so that news is not particularly shocking, and I'm not 100% sure what "fully-voiced" means, as other "fully-voiced" games actually weren't.

One thing we can definitely confirm from this blurry shot, however, is that your characters will interact via hand-drawn talking portraits. So if you were worried that was disappearing, you can now rest easier.

It also confirms the heroine's full name, which is Rororina Friksen. Which is pretty great, I would imagine.

Oh, and the game also will be released on PlayStation 3 in Japan on June 25, 2009. So there's that too.
