''Etrian Odyssey III: The Drowned City'' (世界樹の迷宮III 星海の来訪者, ''Labyrinth of Yggdrasil III: Visitors of the Starry Sea'') is the third installment of the ''VideoGame/EtrianOdyssey'' series. It was released on the UsefulNotes/NintendoDS Platform/NintendoDS in 2010, being also the final installment of the series in this system before jumping onto the UsefulNotes/Nintendo3DS Platform/Nintendo3DS (which would be released the following year).



This is notably the only ''Etrian Odyssey'' game for the DS that did not get an ''Untold'' remake for UsefulNotes/Nintendo3DS. However, this game has some representation in ''VideoGame/EtrianOdysseyNexus'', a MegamixGame that takes elements from all games in the series, with the Prince(ss)/Sovereign, Ninja, Zodiac, Farmer, and Shogun classes being selectable as player character classes, remakes of the Waterfall Wood and Undersea Grotto strata, and live-instrumentation arranges of several tracks from this game.

In 2023, this game got an HD remaster for Windows PC via UsefulNotes/{{Steam}} and for UsefulNotes/NintendoSwitch, along with remasters of ''VideoGame/EtrianOdysseyI'' and ''VideoGame/EtrianOdysseyIIHeroesOfLagaard''; this release can be purchased by itself or as as part of the bulk-discount bundle ''Etrian Odyssey Origins Collection'' with the other two games. It has some of the quality-of-life touches from the 3DS games, such as skill flowcharts, multiple difficulty levels, the option to choose character portraits other than ones specific to their class, and the upgraded map interface, but is otherwise based on the DS original with no major additions (like Story Mode or classes backported from later games). This version of the game modifies the cartography interface to accommodate a single 16:9 screen, and mapping can be done with keyboard, game controller, or mouse controls on PC, the touchscreen on Switch when in Handheld or Tabletop Mode (with options to accommodate both stylus and finger touches), or a controller on Switch in any mode (including TV Mode, which does not allow use of the Switch's touchscreen).
