E3 '10: Atlus Takes DSes On An Etrian Odyssey
Atlus is showing RPG fans some more love with the revelation that they're bringing the Nintendo DS title Etrian Odyssey III: The Drowned City to North America this fall. You'll travel to a "sparkling oceanic paradise filled with atmospheric dungeons to chart and survey, watery expanses to sail across and rumors of a sunken city to investigate." Using the touchscreen map navigator, you'll chart your own travels, so don't make any mistakes, or you'll find yourself hopelessly lost at sea!
"The Etrian Odyssey series is renowned for successfully marrying deep roleplaying gameplay with a grand sense of adventure and the thrill of the unknown," stated Aram Jabbari, Manager of Public Relations and Sales at Atlus. "The Drowned City, the third chapter in the fan-favorite franchise, takes the established exploration RPG gameplay--a loving tribute to classic pen-and-paper and PC entries in the genre--to exciting new frontiers. The seas off the coast of the city of Armoroad offer an exciting, mysterious unknown, filled with hidden dangers and bountiful treasures. With an entirely new host of character classes to customize and train, the addition of naval travel and exploration, and the unprecedented introduction of cooperative local multiplayer content, Etrian Odyssey III isn't content to simply continue the series; it seeks to redefine it."
Create your own team from ten new classes and sub-classes. With a maximum number of 30 member slots, you'll have plenty of room to experiment with all the skills. Map your journey around the unknown sea and explore the secrets behind the sunken city. Up to five friends can team up in combat challenges over a wireless connection to take down the toughest monsters in the sea, and other options allow you to wirelessly trade items with buddies. So pack your bags and get ready to set sail later this year!
