A new Etrian Odyssey V trailer has been posted online highlighting the game’s Fencer class. We’ve gone ahead and posted it below.

Following CoroCoro’s coverage, Level-5 has shared a bunch of new information about Yo-kai Watch 3.

When the game was announced last year, it was confirmed that the game will have two protagonists and takes place in two countries. Keita and Jibanyan’s story will be in St. Peanutsburg, USA while Inaho and USApyon’s story will be in Sakura New Town, Japan. Sakura New Town has a new map Aobahara (reference to Akihabara), along with a NyaKB48 Theater (reference to AKB48).

Yo-kai Watch 3 will have a brand new battle system with the Tactics Medal Board. Placements of the medals on lower screen’s board will also determine yo-kai positions at upper screen. Players will be able to do things like make a formation, evade enemy attacks, and switch in reserve yo-kai.
