Etrian Odyssey IV: Legends of the Titan (http://www.joystiq.com/2012/02/28/etrian-odyssey-iv-coming-to-the-3ds-in-japan-classes-detailed/) is journeying to North America early next year, Atlus today announced. It's no surprise to see the 3DS dungeon crawler localized following the Western release of the first three entries in the portable series (http://www.joystiq.com/tag/etrian-odyssey), but now we have a release window along with a RRP of $39.99.
As per the Japanese version, the fourth entry comes with a 'Casual' mode, set to an easier difficulty to help newcomers acclimatize to the usually unforgiving series. Casual mode gives you a permanent item that lets you warp out of dungeons back to town. There's also no Game Over screen, with dying in Casual mode instead sending you back to town too.
