Template:Game info Attack on Titan (進撃の巨人, Shingeki no Kyojin) is the seventh Omega Force third-party collaboration title based on the titular animated adaptation of the comic made by Hajime Isayama. It is was teased through its website launch and simultaneously revealed online and on stage at Gamescom 2015. The game's concepts are "many versus one" and to create global appeal for all Attack on Titan fans. Development is currently 50% complete; the PS4 version will be the main base for the other ports.

Hisashi Koinuma is the producer and Tomoyuki Kitamura is the director. Koinuma said that this title "will not be a Warriors or hunting game". According to Koinuma, he wanted this game to complement the excitement for the Romance of the Three Kingdoms thirtieth anniversary since Kodansha is a partner for its live event. After Kodansha agreed in early 2013, Isayama requested for the game to be something he would like to play: something that is "firm and challenging". Koinuma thinks development was delayed due to his executive promotion, but he is optimistic in the game's completion.

The engine and concept underwent many retakes since then, but Kitamura believes they will present something that has easy controls yet appeals to ardent fans and newcomers to Attack on Titan and action games. Koinuma remarked that the teaser shown at Gamescom is still not up to their standards and is undergoing constant revisions. Developers believe players will need to adopt a tactical approach to succeed.

Gameplay

  • There is a greater freedom of movement compared to Warriors titles to better incorporate the series's Three Dimensional Maneuver Gear. Players can criss-cross across the stage and latch onto Titans. They are advised to keep an eye on the heights found in an environment.
  • Similar to Toukiden, players will need to rely on team co-op to locate a Titan's weak points. Koinuma adds that players may even need to sacrifice their team mates.
  • Titans have attacks that can destroy the environment, forcing players to change their attack strategy.
  • The main story mode shall replicate the animated TV series. Characters who don't appear much in the main story mode will have original scenarios created for them in a separate mode.
  • Models are toon-rendered to replicate the animated visuals. Voice actors from the animated adaptation reprise their roles.
