It might seem like much longer (especially so given the great year the system has had so far), but the 3DS got an Etrian Odyssey game back in February, Etrian Odyssey IV. It was a pretty good game, decent at what it did, and a hardcore dungeon crawler and a timesink for those who’re into that kind of a game. But in a year dominated by other high profile 3DS releases like Animal Crossing, Luigi’s Mansion, Fire Emblem, and Atlus’ own Shin Megami Tensei IV, it kind of faded away quickly.
And now we have another one of these coming up soon. Etrian Odyssey Untold: The Millennium Girl revisits the first title, released back on the Nintendo DS, and it brings with it several enhancements (including the fact that the game is basically redone from the ground up entirely. It’s a new game in all but name). One of these includes the Story Mode, the first time the series has had a campaign with a definite story. You can see the trailer for the story mode above.
Etrian Odyssey Untold: The Millennium Girl releases exclusively on the Nintendo 3DS on October 1. It will be available via the Nintendo eShop, and at retail as well. We will have our review for the game up soon, so stay tuned.
