Following the announcement and first batch of screens, today we get the first ever trailer for the upcoming Nintendo 3DS first person dungeon crawler RPG, Etrian Odyssey IV.

This trailer shows bits and pieces of the in-game action, and a lot of scenery and character artwork. The gameplay shows off some of the new 3D animation and effects, and it looks pretty cool overall although I can’t help but feel that the enemy designs had a bit more artistic flair when they were 2D sprites that were used in previous Etrian Odyssey games on the DS.
