Official Description[]

Changes from Witch Spring 3[]

• Character illustrations and 3D graphics have all been remade.
  • The new illustrations are currently credited to the "original designer,"^[2] but it is unclear whether that means Jiseon Hong (the official WS3 illustrator), Mo (the inital WS3 illustrator who was replaced by Hong), or Kiwi Walks in general.
• New events will be added.
• The game will be fully voiced in Japanese, available in all versions of the game. A Korean dub will be available on Korean versions of the game, but whether it will be available in all versions is unknown.

F.A.Q[]

1. "How do I find the Maegrik's Egg?"
In Caldaria Cave, defeat the Lavalord. Then, set Birdrock as your doll and walk into the lava. Eirudy will be able to cross the lava to the path on the other end. Follow that path and you will find the Maegrik's Egg.

(Note: This isn't mentioned in the item description, but the Maegrik Egg can be consumed for +40 MAG.)

2. "What do I do in Southern Dragon Valley?" / "How do I fight the Maegrik Dragon?"
After you enter Southern Dragon Valley, open your inventory and use the Dragon Meat dropped by the Nannah Dragon you defeated beforehand. That will summon the Maegrik Dragon.

3. "How do I fight Maegrik Dragon Jr.?"
Starting in Chapter 3, go to Mt. Caldaria and go directly to the edge of the water at the very top of the mountain. This will trigger a battle against Maegrik Dragon Jr.

(Note: The Flaming Maegrik Dragon Scale it drops cannot be used for anything aside from forging a Maegrik Blade, or selling it for 3600 Gold.)

4. "How do I get the Legendary Weapon upgrades?"
Out of the three Legendary Weapons, only the Fine Blade Shubetha can be upgraded on any route. Both Armedak the Holy Sword and the Old Staff of Revgato require you to be on either the Light or True paths.

Fine Blade Shubetha → Za'rrel Shubetha: In Chapter 3, talk to the man in the Village of Lehert closest to the Lehert-reed entrance. He will give you the "Thieves in the Mine" optional quest. After completing the quest, he will reward you with Rare Metal. With the Rare Metal in your inventory, and with the Fine Blade Shubetha equipped, visit Za'rrel the Weaponmaker in the Weaponmaker's House. He will offer to upgrade the sword, so let him. This will give you the Za'rrel Shubetha.

Old Staff of Revgato → Staff of Revgato: After completing the events in the Temple of Marii and the Spring of Revgato - Root, Eirudy will be told to visit the Spring of Truth in Misty Forest. (It's the same spring that you get the Misty Spring Water from.) When Eirudy enters the vision, the Staff of Revgato will be floating behind her. Approach it to get the upgrade; if you don't, the staff will remain the Old Staff.

Armedak the Holy Sword: In the Temple of Marii, go into the hidden room. (You will see the entrance on the far left of the map. Tap on the entrance and Eirudy will automatically move to it.) By standing on the platform in the hidden room, you will undergo Marii's Trial of Patience. As long as you have more than a total of 996 HP + MP, you can clear the Trial. After withstanding it, Armedak will learn Ecarr Vertel as its weapon skill. (Eirudy will also learn the spell Ecarr Vertel regardless of whether she has Armedak or not.)

5. How do I get all 21 acquired info?
Simply put, you can't. There was an oversight where the info section for Inventory (before Additional Equipment's) is impossible to acquire. (Editor's note: If there is a way to acquire it, please let me know in the comments!)

Development[]

Plans for a console release of the Witch Spring games were first announced in an update post on February 12, 2020. By that point, development on WS3R was already underway. No further announcements were made until July 29, 2020, where it was confirmed that WS3 would be the first console release.

More news was released on August 21 by G Choice, who would be publishing the game. The first key visual was unveiled along with various screenshots, including Eirudy and Adrian's new illustrations.

On September 18, voice actors were revealed. The voice actor list is longer than the currently revealed characters, so a few are likely for other characters who don't have profiles on the website yet, or are for generic characters.

On September 24, a Korean dub and physical release via Clouded Leopard Entertainment was announced. A new promo poster for the game was unveiled on September 29th, along with a December 17, 2020 release date for the Korean version. On October 1, G Choice announced that the initial December 3 release date for the Japanese and global versions had been delayed to December 17 as well.

On December 10, the English version of the official site was released. The game was also made available for pre-download.
