posted on by Kyle Cardine
Atlus USA began streaming a trailer on Monday for Atlus and Spike Chunsoft's upcoming Nintendo 3DS game Etrian Mystery Dungeon (Sekaiju to Fushigi no Dungeon). The trailer features the dungeon crawling gameplay, as well as mechanics on how the two games will crossover.
Atlus USA also announced that a soundtrack CD will come with pre-orders and limited edition copies of the game, and released the game's cover art:
The crossover between Etrian Odyssey and Mystery Dungeon is set for release in Japan on March 5 and Spring 2015 in North America. The company plans to release both physical and digital editions for US$39.99.
Like the Mystery Dungeon game series, Etrian Mystery Dungeon will feature a new random map each time a player enters a dungeon. Players explore with a party of up to four chosen from ten different Etrian Odyssey class types. Exploration will be in the third-person perspective, unlike the Etrian Odyssey first-person, and players must control their party group.
Atlus' Shigeo Komori and Yukari Yokoro (art director, Etrian Odyssey IV) will serve as producer and director, respectively. Spike Chunsoft's Seiichirō Nagahata and Kaoru Hasegawa will serve as project director and character designer, respectively. Other staff members are returning from previous Etrian Odyssey games: Yūzō Koshiro will compose the music, Yūji Himukai will draft class designs, Shin Nagasawa will provide monster designs, and Nizō Yamamoto will act as art supervisor.
