Between new games and remakes, Atlus has cranked out a bunch of Etrian Odyssey games for 3DS. Another entry in the series is in development, and it sounds like it will be the last one for Nintendo’s dedicated portable.

Referring to what fans want to see from Etrian Odyssey, series director Shigeo Komori told Famitsu in a new interview:

In order to meet the expectations of these fans, I would like to deliver a “festival”-like game that can be said to be another culmination [of the series]. That’s the feeling I have, and I am currently developing a new game.

Komori went on to tease towards the very end of the interview:

This is the last game in the series that will have a map to be drawn on the bottom screen on the Nintendo 3DS. For specifics, I hope that you can wait until the day when we can officially announce it.

– Medabots 5: Susutake Mura no Tenkousei (Game Boy Color, 2001)

Each version will cost 4,800 yen.

A 12,000 yen “20th Anniversary Edition” will also be released.

In total, it will include:

– Medabots Classics: Kabuto Version

In addition to the five classic Medabots games, Medabots Classics will offer the following new features:

– Save and Load Anytime – Save right before a Robattle to try it again. No longer should you worry about being defeated and losing your parts.

– Wireless Multiplayer – Local wireless battles have been implemented for each game. Parts trading is also supported.

– Robattle Skip and Speed Feature – Skip Robattles against small fry enemies or against enemies you cannot defeat. However, while you can earn experience points, your Medal proficiency will not raise, so you cannot use this feature too often. You can also increase the speed of the game.

– Medabot Album – A Medabot Album featuring the parts you obtained in the main story of each game has been added. The full graphic for a Medabot will be unlocked after you obtain all four of its parts.

– Play a New Game with All of the Parts You Obtained – After clearing the main story of a game, you can start a new game with all of the parts you obtained. It may even be possible to use the phantom parts that cannot be obtained in the main story.
