Seemingly not wanting to be outdone by the Switch, the Nintendo 3DS is still going reasonably strong with software support, especially from Atlus who have just announced Etrian Odyssey X for release in Japan on August 2nd 2018. There is no mention of a Western release as of yet but it's a pretty safe bet considering previous releases such as Etrian Odyssey V which we reviewed mere months ago.

Here's a summary extracted from the Press Release... (credit to MindFreak on our forum)

– Culmination of the series from its start on the DS to now
– Popular classes from the games will be gathered in this one
– New “Hero” class
– Can make a dream party with a total of 19 classes
– Popular mechanics from the games will be gathered as well, including sub-classes, character creation, difficulty selection, and “Force Boost / Force Break”
– Completely new game
– More voluminous than previous titles
– Numerous labyrinths in the new setting that is the distant island of Lemuria
– First-print copy DLC for the game titled the “New Adventurer Illustration Pack”
