Koei Tecmo has confirmed that Attack On Titan 3 will be launching towards the end of this year, with December 10th being the date to put in your diaries if you’re looking forward to the game. Alongside the announcement of the release date, Koei Tecmo has released a new gameplay trailer for Attack On Titan 3, showing what players can expect when getting into the game.
There are a few different versions of Attack On Titan 3 depending on if you choose to go physical or digital. There is the standard edition that solely contains the base game. If you opt for the physical Steelbook Launch edition, you will get the base game, an Attack On Titan 3 steelbook, one Iconart, bonus customisation DLC including the Wings of Freedom choker and gloves. The Digital Deluxe edition includes three costumes, seven creator parts, the Original Equipment pack, digital artbook, and the starter item pack. The digital deluxe edition also grants 72 hour early access to Attack On Titan 3, except for the Switch 2 version.
The game will follow the story of the anime, with players starting in the Survey Corps, creating their own character to fight alongside established characters in major battles from the series. As usual, each character has unique abilities, and you will need to assemble a squad with the right balance of skills for each mission. New for A03 are Exterior Scouting Missions, which take players beyond the city walls to build bases, destroy Titans and expand the territory claimed by the few remaining humans. Resource management will be key, with the players balancing the risk of heading into new territory with the possibility of losing some of their soldiers.
Attack on Titan 2 was released way back in 2018 and we scored it an impressive 8/10 on our review. Miguel said, “Omega Force managed to do something incredibly rare and impressive with their Attack on Titan games, they managed to make a totally brand new video game. Some trappings of the Warriors formula remain, but they serve to complement a fresh and unique core gameplay experience. I wish the involvement from my character in the story had been a little more significant, but the opportunities I got to mingle with the cast between missions more than made up for it. Attack on Titan 2 is one of the strongest anime video games I’ve ever played, not because of a perfect story mode or graphics, but because it creates a unique gameplay experience that could only ever be done with an Attack on Titan game.”
