Atlus teases the “next stage” of Etrian Odyssey
《世界树迷宫》公开新作预告视频 系列将进入新的阶段

　　Atlus公开了一段《世界树迷宫》新企划的预告视频，制作人小森成雄表示3DS的《世界树迷宫X》只是3DS平台上的最后一部作品，同时也意味着系列将会进入下一个阶段。现在新的项目已经启动，希望能够尽早以理想的姿态诞生。

　　《世界树迷宫》初代发售于2007年的NDS平台，距今已十年有余，靠着丰富的职业搭配和颇高的难度获得了不少玩家的青睐。系列监督小森成雄曾在采访中表示，《世界树迷宫X》是3DS平台上的最后一部作品，也是集系列大成之作。在视频的结尾处显示《世界树迷宫》正在向全新的世界“胎动”中，即将进入下个阶段。



With Etrian Odyssey X due out for 3DS on August 2 in Japan, Atlus has teased the “next stage” of the dungeon RPG series in a newly released teaser video.

First, here is a message from Etrian Odyssey X director Shigeo Komori (via, 2, 3):

Etrian Odyssey X will at last be the 10th entry in the Etrian Odyssey series. The reason we have been able to continue the series is thanks to all of the fans who have played and supported its titles thus far. Thank you so much.

As we said at the start, Etrian Odyssey X is a culmination of the Etrian Odyssey series thus far, as well as the last Etrian Odyssey game for 3DS. But of course, that means the last “for 3DS.” The last title for 3DS is nothing other than an announcement for the beginning of the next stage.

We are now moving quickly toward a completely new world for the Etrian Odyssey series that everyone has supported thus far. We are working hard to realize this passion as quickly and properly as possible, so please continue to give us your support.
