Attack on Titan is still a hugely popular Japanese manga series, and Koei Tecmo has announced that another game based on the series - Escape from Certain Death - will be coming to 3DS on 30th March 2017. Set in an old castle, fans can expect a brand new original story following the adventure of a Survey Corp member.
An overview of the story reads as follows:
While investigating the outskirts of a certain old castle, the Survey Corps are caught in a Titan assault. The ground collapses amid the chaos, and the protagonist ends up falling into an underground part of the old castle. Just narrowly escaping death, the protagonist cannot return to the surface as their Three Dimensional Manoeuvre Gear has broken. The protagonist links up with a single "partner" and attempts to escape the castle underground shrouded in mystery, but…?
Developed by Ruby Party, the game is due to be released as a download, standard physical release and a special Treasure Box edition for all the super manga fans out there. It will cost a pretty penny - and by penny we mean Yen, of course; it'll be priced at 5,800 Yen for the standard edition and 12,800 for Treasure Box. The special edition includes:
- A copy of the game
- Soundtrack
- Waterproof Poster
- Visual Book
- Large Tin Badge
- Miksasa and Levi 3DS theme with voices downloaded code
There is no announcement on whether the game will be coming to the West; the previous 3DS instalment eventually made its way out of Japan, so there is some hope. Meanwhile, check out the teaser trailer below to get your first glimpse:

I once sent a pic of the Smiling Titan to my friends on Mother's Day. Good times.
"Check out the teaser trailer"
Which shows us exactly nothing...
@MagicEmperor
You're wicked and I love it.
Definitely wouldn't seeing it come too the West but I would like too see a version on the NS at some point also.
@ThanosReXXX That's a teaser trailer for you.
@Rhydas Indeed. Suppose that people didn't even know what Attack on Titan was. Then this teaser certainly isn't going to whet anyone's appetite...
@Tsurii Blasphemy! I thoroughly enjoyed the anime.
Haters can hate... I'll still be very happy with more Attack on Titans.
Is it just me or does anyone else find Attack on Titan terrifying. 😭
@Tsurii I'll take your word for it on the Manga, since I never read that. Haven't read a single Manga in decades, and back when I did it was mostly hentai...
I do watch a lot of anime, though. Mostly fan subs and Attack on Titan was kind of a pleasant surprise to me personally. I do acknowledge that the story doesn't have all that much content, so I am wondering how long they can keep it interesting.
There's a lot of other series that have also lost momentum, so that could happen to this one too.
Gameplay footage? please?
shame it's just a teaser trailer. Good idea ditching the vertical manoeuvre gear, though, the previous games slavish devotion to recreating that faithfully kind of held it back, IMO
@Fandabidozi
I don't know about terrifying but the titans are legitimately creepy as ****.
@Fandabidozi Yes! Utterly Terrifying!
this looks fantastic im sold..............
What's the gameplay like?
@AlexSora89 smiles warmly
good jiggle physics can you please not scare me with that thumbnail
@MagicEmperor
Charming.
ALL OVER THE WORLD BUT LET THE VAs IN JAPANESE VERSION
