Coverage surrounding Etrian Odyssey V has been a bit strange. While it was announced back in November 2014, Atlus didn’t say which platform the game would be on. We’ve also received relatively little news about the title since the original reveal.

Interestingly, Etrian Odyssey V has popped up on a new survey from Atlus. One question actually lists it as a 3DS title. Given the series’ history, that platform choice would definitely make sense.
