Atlus has released a new trailer for Etrian Odyssey IV: Legends of the Titan, the latest in the developer and publisher's series of excellent old school first-person RPGs. Etrian Odyssey IV features, in the words of a press release sent out with the above trailer, a "deep character creation and party customization system" that "celebrates the tradition of classic pen-and-paper role-playing games."

If old school is your thing, then Etrian Odyssey on 3DS is definitely the way to go. The official plot synopsis follows:

For centuries, the tree Yggdrasil has been a constant presence in the lives of the people of Tharsis. It looms on the horizon, visible from everywhere in the city. But its roots are in a far-off land where no one has ventured until the Outland Count of Tharsis sponsors an Explorers Guild to reach Yggdrasil and discover its secrets. You are the latest explorer arriving in Tharsis to seek your fame and fortune. Board your skyship and set out into the clouds in search of treasure, glory, and the answer to Tharsis' oldest mystery.

Etrian Odyssey IV: Legends of the Titan drops on Feb. 26 next year.
