Etrian Mystery Dungeon localization seemingly leaked by Play-Asia
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 1 Comment
Atlus hasn’t confirmed Etrian Odyssey and Mystery Dungeon for the west yet, but Play-Asia appears to leaked an upcoming announcement.
A listing for “Etrian Mystery Dungeon” popped up on the retailer’s website recently. That would seem to be the localized name of Etrian Odyssey and Mystery Dungeon. We should also mention that Play-Asia’s listing contains English screenshots as well as a logo – view them above.
If Play-Asia’s listing is correct, Etrian Mystery Dungeon will be available in March.

REDMOND, Wash.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The underdog hero Captain Toad needs help! He and Toadette will do anything for treasure. How else to explain the two intrepid explorers tackling near-insurmountable obstacles like smoldering volcanoes, rickety mine carts, haunted houses and even fire-breathing dragons? Talk about perseverance! In the Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker game, launching exclusively for the Wii U console on Dec. 5, players must muster their own courage to help Captain Toad and Toadette tackle maze-like levels full of tricks, traps and enemies.
Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker finds players donning their own trusty head lamps to journey through more than 70 colorful and imaginative levels. Each level is a self-contained puzzle full of surprising obstacles and creative challenges that can only be solved by viewing the world from different angles using the Wii U GamePad controller. With Super Gems and Power Stars hiding in every nook and cranny, power-ups ready to be grabbed and many unlockable secrets, Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker is overflowing with treasures of all types to track. And tracking treasure is what Captain Toad and Toadette do best.
