RVINE, CALIFORNIA — NOVEMBER 21, 2012 — ATLUS, a brand of Index Digital Media, Inc., today announced details of the gift with purchase items that will accompany retail versions of the upcoming RPG Etrian Odyssey IV: Legends of the Titan for Nintendo 3DS.

Etrian Odyssey IV will be available at retail and on Nintendo eShop for digital download on February 26, 2013 across North America.

The art book showcases a variety of colorful imagery from the game.

The “Rough Drafts & Outtakes” CD gives fans rare access to the famed game composer Yuzo Koshiro’s process by providing early arrangements that would be used in creating the final atmospheric orchestrations of Etrian Odyssey IV’s musical score. Moreover, the CD includes tracks that did not make it in the final selection of musical themes.

“Fans of the Etrian Odyssey franchise will not want to miss out on this one-of-a-kind collectible for Etrian Odyssey IV,” said Tim Pivnicny, Vice President of Sales & Marketing, ATLUS. “The game’s bonus items in Japan were extremely popular, and we’re excited to bring this unique art book with updated imagery and stunning CD soundtrack to those who get their hands on this title at retail launch next year.”

For centuries, the tree Yggdrasil has been a constant presence in the lives of the people of Tharsis. It looms on the horizon, invisible from everywhere in the city, but its roots are in a far-off land where no one has ventured until the Outland Count of Tharsis sponsors an Explorers Guild to reach Yggdrasil and discover its secrets. Prepare to board your skyship and set out into the clouds in search of treasure, glory, and the answer to Tharsis’ oldest mystery.

Etrian Odyssey IV brings enhanced graphics and 3D effects, more immersive 3D dungeons, and upgradeable skyships that let players travel and battle among the clouds. Players can utilize 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 novice players. Additionally, guild card and character trading functionality will be available through the 3DS StreetPass feature.
