With Etrian Odyssey X due out for 3DS on August 2 in Japan, Atlus has teased the “next stage” of the dungeon RPG series in a newly released teaser video.

First, here is a message from Etrian Odyssey X director Shigeo Komori (via, 2, 3):

Etrian Odyssey X will at last be the 10th entry in the Etrian Odyssey series. The reason we have been able to continue the series is thanks to all of the fans who have played and supported the titles thus far. Thank you so much. As we said at the start, Etrian Odyssey X is a culmination of the Etrian Odyssey series thus far, as well as the last Etrian Odyssey game for 3DS. But of course, that means the last “for 3DS.” The last title for 3DS is nothing other than an announcement for the beginning of the next stage. We are now moving quickly toward a completely new world for the Etrian Odyssey series that everyone has supported thus far. We are working hard to realize this passion as quickly and properly as possible, so please continue to give us your support.

Watch the teaser video below. (Editor’s Note: Etrian Odyssey is known as Sekaiju no Meikyuu in Japan, thus the abbreviation “SQ” in the video.)
