NIS America announced today that the spiritual sequel to the Atelier
Iris series will be heading to the PlayStation Portable System in January 2009.
With an all new multi‐player mode, players can now team up and hunt down monsters
to get rare items. Also new to the PSP version is a data installment feature which installs
part of the game onto the memory stick to make the game load quicker.
The 4th entry in the RPG series, Mana Khemia is different from the previous Atelier Iris
games. Mana Khemia is a campus sim style RPG, where you can interact with
classmates and professors to complete academic quests. You play as Vayne Aurelius, a
novice alchemist who was invited to attend Al‐Revis Academy. At the academy, Vayne
will meet human and not so human alchemists, and together you will solve the
mysteries of alchemy.

healing potions to swords through alchemy.
