Etrian Mystery Dungeon Video Introduces Sovereign, Ninja Classes
posted on by Crystalyn Hodgkins
Atlus USA began streaming a video on Thursday introducing the Sovereign class in its upcoming Nintendo 3DS game Etrian Mystery Dungeon. The sovereign class buffs and protects its allies while carrying a mace and wearing heavy armor.
Atlus USA previously announced the Hexer, Dancer, Landsknecht, Protector, Runemaster classes. The company also streamed a promotional video for the Ninja class last week.
The crossover between Mystery Dungeon game series and Etrian Odyssey series was released in Japan on March 5, and is set for April 7 in North America. Atlus USA plans to release both physical and digital editions for US$39.99. The launch edition in North America will include a 28-page visual book and a CD with rough versions of six themes from the game's soundtrack
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.
