Attack on Titan 2 is an action game based on the Attack on Titan series developed by ‘Omega Force’. It’s coming out 20th of march on the Xbox One, PS4 and PC. The Titans are back and the fight for humanity continues… with more zipping through the air and slashing.
Attack on Titan 2 follows the season two story of the anime series. This already is enough to get fans interested in the game because the second season was awesome. This means players can expect to see the Beast, Colossus and Armoured Titan who are merciless in their attacks. Whats interesting though is that you can create your own character who joins the scout regiment. This character is off course customisable and can play through both seasons of Attack on Titan.
There are ‘town life’ sections in between battles which have a lot of activities for players to engage in. It’s here that you can interact with other characters and form relationships with them. There is a titan research room where you can see the Titans you have caught and learn useful tips and information regarding them. There is the option to receive training which improves your characters skills which effect combat. Players can even upgrade and develop their equipment making them better and even stylish, just take a look for yourself. If you are feeling a bit political then head to the regiment administration to propose policies which will help out in life in the town and combat so it’s worth exploring.
The developers focused on what was weak in their first game which was honestly the Titans themselves. In the first game the Titans were slow, easy to kill, didn’t do much and when they did something, it was to run around or randomly just jump in the air. They pretty much let you kill them. Now the Titans have more movement and act more like what’s seen in the anime. They can detect you and zoom after you in an attempt to grab or crush. They will jump and move to help you miss their nape and have more reactions to players flying around them. So expect more swipes and grab attempts. This should hopefully make the combat more thrilling and at least difficult. Seriously when you watch the anime you see how easily anyone can die, the game should truthfully make the combat brutally hard or have a brutal hard mode.
Now the combat can be done with friends. That’s right, co-op mode is available. Four players can work together to slay the Titans and make their way through the story or… They can play Annihilation mode. What’s that? basically two teams of four players race against each other to see who can get the slay the most Titans first to get the highest score. There are factors to scoring like chain bonus which grants more points for kills if your team work together and even more if you destroy all the limbs first before killing the Titan. Near the end of the match all points scores get doubled creating a crazy rush for points.
Also on the battlefield you will come across bases. It’s important to know the bases from each other as they replenish different things like gas and blades. There are some bases though that do attack titans as they have cannons. Players can even use the a powerful attack to finish of titans after successfully dodging a Titans attack. You dodge attacks by air jumping right before an attack. There is also so much more characters to play now including Keith Sadies, Ian Dietrich, Miche Zacharias and even Dhalis Zachary. What? Who are they? And you call yourself an Attack on Titan Fan. All these things truly do add depth to the game. Attack on Titan 2 sounds bigger and better.
Overall Attack on Titan 2 looks like a fun game. It’s concept off course is cool and the story will be exciting for fans and gamers alike. The graphics are better but not by much. Gameplay and flow is definitely improved. The developers ‘Omega Force’ did a excellent job with this game. We at X35 Earthwalker look to see how well the game does. Now titans are a massive threat but even they pale in comparison to… the ‘Earth Walk!’
