How to Complete All Quests in Atelier Ryza: Ever Darkness & the Secret Hideout for PlayStation 4
Welcome to our Atelier Ryza: Ever Darkness & the Secret Hideout Quests Guide. With this guide, we hope to give you just enough info to trigger, find, and complete all of the base-game quests.
Note that there are quite a lot of Side-Quests in Atelier Ryza where you don’t actually have to do anything. You just turn up, speak to the NPC, then the quest completes. To save us both a lot of headache, I’ve omitted those ones, and this guide will only display quests that you might have trouble with.

Some quests require you to synthesize/gather certain items or learn certain recipes. The best way to find/learn those is via our Atelier Ryza Synthesis Guide.

Once you’ve progressed far enough to access the World Map, you will see scroll icons next to regions that have available requests. You can then go through the list of areas and see the available quests on the right.
- A red “?” icon means you can’t start the quest yet.
- A green “?” icon means you can start the quest.
- A green scroll icon means that you have accepted the quest, but you haven’t met the conditions required for turning it in.
- A green “!” icon means that you can hand in the quest.
Press to open the map while exploring an area to find similar Side-Quest icons on the map, indicating NPC locations.

You can also view your active and completed Quests by opening the menu, and then selecting “Quests.”
Atelier Ryza Quests
Here you will find the details of any quests which actually have objectives to complete. Most quests unlock through story/questline progression, however, if you’re looking for a quest that isn’t showing up, try the following:
- Sleep until Morning. Many quests require at least 24 hours to have passed since the last quest.
- Complete some of your other quests, they may be part of a questline. Especially if they’re for the same Quest-giver NPC.
- Check again at a different time of day. Some NPCs move or disappear completely depending on the time of day. It’s generally a good idea not to try completing any quests at Night as most NPCs are absent.
The Quests are listed below in alphabetical order to make it easier to find the Quest you need by name, but you may want to use Ctrl+F/Cmd+F to search for a specific term.
