As the launch of the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series consoles approaches, the biggest question surrounding almost every major upcoming title is upgrade support. Players want to know if their current gen purchase will grant them the next-gen version for free, beyond just backwards compatibility. While giant titles like Cyberpunk 2077 will have a free next-gen upgrade, even smaller games are getting in on the action.
Atelier Ryza 2: Lost Legends of the Secret Fairy is officially coming to the PlayStation 5 this December in Japan to release alongside the PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch versions. Yet, despite a same day release, it seems developer Gust is offering a special deal. Those who purchase Atelier Ryza 2: Lost Legends of the Secret Fairy on PlayStation 4 will get the PlayStation 5 version for free.
Gematsu confirms that this upgrade is applicable to both the physical and digital PlayStation 4 versions of Atelier Ryza 2. Those with the digital edition of the title will have ability to download the PlayStation 5 version at no additional cost. While this is only currently confirmed for Japan, with publisher Koei Tecmo aiming for a simultaneous worldwide release later this year, the offer will likely extend to Western players upon launch.
The news of Atelier Ryza 2‘s free upgrade has been met with praise by players and fans. The discussion around cross-gen upgrades has been at the forefront of most players contemplating the leap to the ninth generation of consoles. Sony has faced controversy over its decision regarding cross-version purchases as the publisher confirms that owners of Spider-Man on PS4 will not get a free upgrade.
With publisher Koei Tecmo offering a free upgrade with Atelier Ryza 2, many fans are wondering if the publishers other upcoming titles will get the same treatment. Fans still eagerly await any kind of update on Persona 5 Scramble‘s Western release date, but the extended silence may mean a PlayStation 5 upgrade might be the reward for patience.
Atelier Ryza 2: Lost Legends & The Secret Fairy will launch this winter for PC, PS4, PS5, and Switch.
