Ever Oasis

During this morning's Nintendo Direct, the company showed off more of its new action RPG, Ever Oasis. If you missed it, you can watch the full segment right here.

Based on the video below, Ever Oasis looks like a charming mash-up of The Legend of Zelda and Animal Crossing. Players will spend some of their time exploring the desert and collecting materials, which oasis merchants will then craft into items to sell to travelers. The titular oasis acts as your hometown, and can be upgraded and expanded – you can even coax travelers into moving in by helping them out with various tasks. You'll also do a little dungeon spelunking, aided by allies that have unique weapons and skills.

Ever Oasis releases on the Nintendo 3DS next year.
