Recommended Videos

Atlus recently announced Etrian Odyssey and Mystery Dungeon, a collaboration title between their dungeon crawler and Spike Chunsoft’s roguelike. It looks like Play-Asia may have accidentally leaked the localization ahead of time with a page for Etrian Mystery Dungeon.

 

Update: Atlus USA have confirmed that Etrian Mystery Dungeon will be released in the US sometime in Spring 2015 for the Nintendo 3DS. The game will cost $39.99.

The above screenshots show a glimpse of the game in the English language.

 

They also provided the following summary on features:

 

  • Infinite Dungeons to Explore – Etrian Mystery Dungeon incorporates the random map feature, which changes the floor terrain each time a player enters the dungeon. This core mechanic, inherited from the Mystery Dungeon series, challenges the players with a new maze and stronger monsters every time, offering them unlimited replayability!

 

  • Attention to Detail – The Etrian Odyssey tradition of party customization is in full effect for Etrian Mystery Dungeon. After the first journey as a Landsknecht, players can freely choose their party of 4 from up to 10 different class types. While each class has a unique skill set of its own, characters can also unlock new skills through skill trees

 

  • Not Your Grandfather’s Combat – The unique perspective in Etrian Mystery Dungeon means that special care will have to be given when selecting party members and upgrading their abilities. With dungeons chock full of enemies and all the loot and money collected at stake, being 100 percent certain in your party’s abilities is crucial for making it out alive

 

Along with the description below:

 

Far off in the mountains, the small village Aslarga becomes a hub for adventurers looking for fame and fortune from the Mystery Dungeons. But dire challenges await even the most stalwart adventurers in Etrian Mystery Dungeon, a turn-based action RPG roguelike developed by ATLUS and Spike Chunsoft. The Nintendo 3DSâ„¢ exclusive mixes Etrian Odyssey’s vast RPG party and skill customization aspects, and Mystery Dungeon’s infinitely random dungeon adventures. There’s no hand-holding in Etrian Mystery Dungeon. The action/turn based combat means that battling monsters is not just about using the right skills, but becomes an elegant Pas de Quatre of strategic positioning. Players form their parties with familiar Etrian Odyssey classes, such as Landsknecht and Runemaster, customize individuals using Etrian-style skill trees, and then take up to four members into the dungeons. Always randomized with various levels and paths, the dungeons require plenty of exploration, not to mention the incredible loot rewards — just be wary of what waits among the deepest depths.

 

The release date for Etrian Mystery Dungeon is marked as March 2015 on Play-Asia, but Atlus simply say “Spring 2015” in their press release, which was sent out after the leak.
