Update: Here’s the boxart:

Original: Attack on Titan: Escape from Certain Death will release for the 3DS on March 30 in Japan. The game will cost 5,800 yen. There is also a Treasure Box version of the game, retailing for 12,800 yen, which includes a visual book, soundtrack, two waterproof posters, six tin badges, and download codes for 3DS themes featuring Miksasa and Levi. First-print copies of both versions will also have a download code for an Eren theme, and first-print copies of the Treasure Box edition will have one for an Erwin theme.

The game will center around an original character, who, while investigating outside humanity’s defensive walls, gets trapped beneath an old castle. Their 3D maneuver gear is damaged, and thus they and a partner must find their way out of the underground.

Koei Tecmo has also released a teaser trailer for the game, which can be viewed below:

Update: Bandai Namco has just confirmed via Twitter that Dragon Ball Fusion will indeed launch on November 22 in North America – more than three weeks earlier than its original release date of December 13.

EXCITING NEWS! We are moving up the launch of DRAGON BALL Fusions (3DS) from Dec. 13 to Nov. 22! Did you pre-order your copy yet? #DBFusions pic.twitter.com/6egOapALze

Original: Something strange is going on with Dragon Ball Fusions’ North American release date. Towards the end of last week, retailers started to update their listings, indicating that the game is launching within the next few days. Amazon and GameStop are both showing November 16 – yes, this Wednesday – while GameFly has it for Friday.

Both of these dates don’t make a whole lot of sense, as Bandai Namco’s games usually ship on Tuesdays. That’s why we shrugged it off and assumed those retailers simply made an error. However, a new listing has now appeared on the 3DS eShop with a November 22 release date. It would be a Tuesday, but still earlier than the previously-announced December 13 release date.

If I had to guess, Dragon Ball Fusions isn’t heading to stores this week. I’d say the eShop’s November 22 date is much more probable. Either way, we might be seeing Fusions sooner than we originally thought.
