NISAmerica announced that they’ll be localizing FuRyu’s the Nintendo 3DS title Legend of Legacy for Europe. This is in keeping with their pattern of assisting with the distribution of such titles as Lost Dimension and the Etrian Odyssey games. They’re also maintaining their consistency in providing a physical and digital release.
You may remember our article on the announcement of Legend of Legacy’s North American localization. Everything between the North American and the European localization seems to be the same – down to the “balance adjustments” previously teased by Atlus. It’ll be interesting to see just what those balance adjustments will be.
The game is tentatively set to come out for Europe early in 2016. (While there seems to be some confusion based on stricter interpretations of NISAmerica’s press release, it’s been apparently confirmed that “winter 2016” means “early 2016.”) Keep in mind that Etrian Odyssey Untold 2: The Fafnir Knight is set for February 12 of next year. So perhaps Europe might get Legend of Legacy in March or April? March wouldn’t be too wild of a guess; Legend of Legacy and the Etrian Odyssey series, while both “niche” titles, do not play the same at all.
Meanwhile, Atlus is planning to release Legend of Legacy in North America later this year.
