Atlus will reveal more on Etrian Odyssey V during an upcoming NicoNico Live stream on March 5, but the game’s Japanese Amazon page provides us with some extra info on its story and some screenshots.
First is a look at some of the story details listed on the product page:
Dominated by sword and magic is “Arcadia.” There exists a giant tree from long ago called Yggdrasil, and they say that it is thanks to this tree that there is peace in the world. There’s also one legend about this world tree—by getting to its unreached summit, you can have any dream come true.
“The power to dominate the world,” “the ultimate power,” “the world’s mystery,” and “valuable treasures.” All four races of this land have their own different legends, but none of them have been able to see it for themselves.
There’s a city near the base of the Yggdrasil called “Aeolis,” which received a certain official order one day. Following the legend, brave adventurers who wish to challenge the world tree visited Aeolis. In accordance to this order, you’ll be one of the adventurers to visit Aeolis.
For wealth and honor, or perhaps to fulfill an adventurous spirit, you’ll take on the labyrinths and aim to reach the top of the world tree.
Here are some screenshots shown on the Amazon page:
Etrian Odyssey V: End of the Long Myth will release in Japan on August 4, 2016 for Nintendo 3DS.
