I know there was some confusion here and there, but official PR and such came out. Digital, retail, and demo coming.

Santa Ana, Calif. (April 3, 2013) – NIS America today announced its plan to partner with ATLUS, a brand of Index Digital Media, Inc., to publish Etrian Odyssey™IV: Legends of the Titan throughout Europe this summer. The game will be available in physical format at retail stores, as well as a digital download version on the Nintendo eShop. Etrian Odyssey IV: Legends of the Titan contains plenty of challenges and gameplay for fans of old school dungeon-crawling RPGs, exclusively for the Nintendo 3DS. A demo which includes 2 dungeons will be available on eShop early this summer leading up to the game’s release, for those fans who want to get a nice sneak peek of Etrian Odyssey IV: Legends of the Titan!Players will utilize the 3DS system‘s bottom touch screen to chart their path and create their own maps to keep the party alive in the face of the dangers that await. The game offers robust character customization and job class options, as well as an all-new “Casual” difficulty option to provide greater accessibility for players new to the series.

About Etrian Odyssey IV:

For centuries, the tree Yggdrasil has been a constant presence in the lives of the people of
Tharsis. It looms on the horizon, visible from everywhere in the city. But its roots are in a far-off land where no one has ventured—until, that is, the Outland Count of Tharsis sponsors an Explorers Guild to reach Yggdrasil and discover its secrets. You are the latest explorer arriving in Tharsis to seek your fame and fortune. Board your skyship and set out into the clouds in search of treasure, glory, and the answer to Tharsis‘s oldest mystery.

Key features:

Wealth of content: Engage in more than 30 hours of first-person RPG action and 3D dungeons.

Lovable characters: Etrian Odyssey IV invites adventurers into another dimension of gameplay with enhanced graphics, featuring new character portraits and 3D enemies for the first time.

Fly into the clouds for more: Players can upgrade their skyship to battle amongst the clouds. Dungeon delvers can also access one another’s guild cards and trade using the 3DS system’s
StreetPass feature

DOH TYPO.

This is good news for European fans. Hopefully Atlus will start running all of their handheld EU games through them now.

I don't see it in the PR but, play the demo people, you can transfer the data to the main game should you decide to buy it.

Good to hear. NISA should just partner perma with Atlus to bring all their games to Europe. That way they might be able to get them out quicker than several months after the NA releases.

Yep. Their most recent games published in Euro are Persona 4 Golden, Way of the Samurai 4, and Mugen Souls.

Also, congrats Europe for getting digital and retail.

Ahh, good to know!
