Atlus' E3 line-up: Trine 2 and many more goodies photo

Atlus has sent along a vague email that tells us some of what they have in store for us at E3 next week.

You could have probably guessed one of them. Not too long ago we told you that Frozenbyte and Atlus were teaming up for a digital release. And not too long before that it was revealed that Frozenbyte was working on Trine 2. So guess what? We're going to see Trine 2 at E3. Good news.

Here's the other titles, all of which I'm excited to see:

  • Knights in the Nightmare (the sexy PSP port we've been hearing about)
  • Etrain Odyssey III: The Drowned City
  • Rock of Ages, by Ace Team

They also tease that there is a possible secret or two they're holding onto. We'll bring you hands-on previews of these and more next week.

I still don't think Knights in the Nightmare is suited for a non-touch screen. I can't wait to try it out next week.

But-but...that still means Atlus has some secrets announcements, right...?
Like... a new SMT... with "5" at the end of the title... right...?

Knights in the Nightmare is not a port, it's a translation. The port was released in April 22nd ... in Japan of course.

I still want Trine for Xbox. I have no PS3 and my computer is a piece of crap. :( Oh well. The Knights in the nightmare looks awesome, though.

Knights in the Nightmare won't work very well on anything without a touch screen, unless they've made some drastic changes. Fun game, though.

I agree with Magnalon, I'm not sure how KitN (lololol kitten) would work with only buttons.

HELL YES ETRIAN 3 I NEED THAT GAME NOWWWWW!!!

...and if I don't get any Persona 5 information, there will probably be blood.

Yay, Etrian Odyssey III. Hope it's harder than the first two. Like, you start playing and after a couple of seconds you're stone cold for no apparent reason. That would be REALLY cranking up with the challenge! First two games were sold as truly difficult games, but I clearly remember playing for an hour straight without dying. And they call that difficult? PAH!

No, seriously. I'm really looking forward to playing EOIII, but I'm equally afraid I'll drop it after having my ass handed for the hundredth time in ten minutes.
I know, I suck at games. Sorry.

Hoping for the next Shin Megami Tensei game on consoles or anything not handheld related...
Although I do love Shin Megami Tensei Strange Journey on my DS.

I like Fronzebyte games (all the 3) so Trine 2 is good news.
Zeno Clash is very good so I'm looking foward Rock of Ages.

Etrian Odyssey 3 is something I'm waiting for with baited breath. I'm still playing the second game, and I really hope I get a chance to carry over something from EO2 with a code or something.

I'm excited for both Etrian Odyssey III and Knights in the Nightmare (PSP). However I doubt there will be any information on Persona 5 or any other SMT games since those are generally announced in Japan first.

I love Atlus, Glad to see Etrian Odyssey III up there, can't wait for that.

Hmmm Knights in the Nightmare, I need to actually get through that on the DS but I haven't been able to stop replaying Yggdra Union right now. Hope one of those secrete has something to do with localizing Blaze Union.

Persona 5 will not be multiplat form as much as that might suck to some. Because xbox version won't sell in japan and atlus will not make their own part. :p

EO3 is FUCKYEAH. The new character classes are just oozing with, well, character. And I've heard very good things from some folks who had hands-on time with the J-release.

All of you hoping to see Persona 5 or anything from the SMT series, don't get your hopes up. The E3 showing seems to just be from Atlus USA, not Atlus themselves. In other words, we're only going to see stuff that Atlus USA is planning to localize and publish for the US, not anything new the parent company has in development.

We'll probably have to wait for TGS or something for some info about a possible Persona 5.

looks absolutely awsesome. I played trine, and it was beutiful and origional. trine 2 should be pretty cool and i hope they don't screw it up on the ds.
the Trine becomes a gameplay mechanic that allows players to switch skill types at while. The original was originally released on the PC on July 3, 2009, then on the PlayStation Network on October 22, 2009 in North America. An Xbox Live version is currently being developed, but for fans looking for more Trine, a sequel is underway. No word yet on the release date, but check out the trailer below, and expect to hear more on this sequel when more info is released. ahşap merdiven ahşap merdiven yatak modelleri yatak modelleri kasa taşıma kasa taşıma piyano taşıma piyano taşıma ahşap merdiven ahşap merdiven
