During today’s Nintendo Direct broadcast we got a glimpse of what’s coming to 3DS eShop and retail soon and it looks like quite the strong catalogue for RPG fans.

Firstly Atlus’ Etrian Odysee IV is landing, providing a classic RPG flair with fully 3D environments and battles.

Next up was the beefy crossover from Namco, Sega and Capcom, in the form of Project X Zone – which features realtime combat and combos.

We also got to see the tantalising Code of Princess – and were treated to a lovely video showcasing its multiplayer and single-player features, which you can watch below.

All in all, the third-party landscape looks quite interesting.
