While the time management aspect of the Atelier has been scrapped, getting around quickly is still very much a factor, especially with Atelier Ryza 2. As the games have only gotten bigger, walking from location to location is now much more drawn out. Here’s how to fast travel in Atelier Ryza 2.
How to Fast Travel in Atelier Ryza 2
From the onset of the game after you have been introduced to your titular atelier, you can easily Fast Travel back to it with the button shown at the bottom of the screen (M for PC, Touchpad for PS4/PS5, Minus for Switch).
Once you have progressed far enough into the story you will be led to the Café to use the Bulletin Board for quests. You will have a short dialogue with the manager Zephine. At the end of this dialogue she will give you the World Map, opening up your ability to fast travel. Now, the button/key you used previously to zip back to the atelier will open your world map and allow you to Fast Travel anywhere you have already been.
Time needed: 30 minutes
