If you’ve been lulled into a false sense of security in Etrian Odyssey games, then it’s time to test your mettle against some of the DLC bosses available for Etrian Odyssey 2 Untold: The Fafnir Knight. A four-legged Queen armed with a bow that shoots lightning, a mythical creature only known as “the deepest darkness,” and a giant, ferocious chicken are some of the bosses that await players as DLC quests.
There’s also a Hot Springs DLC quest that has a boss fight and comes with alternate character portraits for Arianna and Chloe!
And there’s more, too, but the BEST part is this: We’re making $13.44/CA$18.44 of that DLC completely FREE for the first week of their respective availabilities!
Full details and pricing are below; new DLC will release every week for four weeks beginning on Etrian Odyssey 2 Untold’s Aug. 4 launch.
