ATLUS USA, the North American division of ATLUS/Index Digital Media have today confirmed that they have released Etrian Odyssey IV: Legends of the Titan to retail stores and via digital download exclusively for the Nintendo 3DS.
As with other instalments in this long running series, Etrian Odyssey IV sets out to deliver a wealth of challenging RPG and dungeon crawling content totalling more than 30 hours worth. In addition, the move to the Nintendo 3DS brings enhanced graphics and immersible dungeon amongst other aspects.
Players will utilize the 3DS’ bottom touch screen to chart out a path and create maps to aid in the team’s survival of the dangers that await. The game delivers deep character creation and party customization options, and an all-new casual play option will provide greater accessibility for novices. Players may access the guild card and character trading functionality through the 3DS StreetPass feature, and alternately trade content using QR codes as well.
Much like the QR codes distributed for the game’s demo, ATLUS is providing additional QR Codes for the retail version of the game that will allow users to unlock more in-game gift items and quests. These QR codes will appear in various ATLUS channels, including FaceBook and Twitter pages, through the launch window and beyond.

Etrian Odyssey IV is gaming’s best tribute to retro RPGs. While this game is the epitome of old-school RPG, we’re excited to add new elements to truly leverage the 3DS including 3D dungeons, StreetPass functionality, and ability to read QR codes for special quests and items.
