Koei Tecmo has updated the official website for the Attack on Titan 2 video game which gives us with new information and screenshots on some of the new playable characters coming to the game. The information below is courtesy of Gematsu.

■ Characters

Thomas Wagner (voiced by Shigeyuki Susaki) (New Playable Character)

A graduate of the 104th Cadet Corps. His performance as a Cadet was not enough to put him in the top ten of his year. He applied for the Scout Regiment after coming into contact with Eren’s powerful desire to eliminate the Titans. He was attached to the same squad as Eren during the Defense of Trost District.

Mina Carolina (voiced by Chika Anzai) (New Playable Character)

A graduate of the 104th Cadet Corps. Her performance as a Cadet was not enough to put her in the top ten of her year. She applied for the Scout Regiment after coming into contact with Eren’s powerful desire to eliminate the Titans. She was attached to the same squad as Eren during the Defense of Trost District.

Nile Dawk (voiced by Anri Katsu) (New Playable Character)

Commander of the Military Police Regiment. Due to his position, he values maintaining order within the Walls over all else. This leads him to advocate for Eren’s speedy punishment during the Special Military Tribunal that decided his fate.

Marlo (voiced by Tomokazu Sugita) (New Playable Character)

A new recruit in the Military Police Regiment who has been dispatched to the same Stohess District branch as Annie and Hitch. He plans to someday reform the now-undisciplined and corrupt Regiment into a just organization.

Hitch (voiced by Akeno Watanabe) (New Playable Character)

A new recruit in the Military Police Regiment who has been dispatched to the same Stohess District branch as Annie and Marlo. While she joined the Regiment in hopes of an easy life, she finds herself dissatisfied there, stuck with work forced upon her by her superiors.

Attack on Titan 2 is due out for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC via Steam in North America and Europe in March 2018. In Japan, it will launch during the same window for PlayStation 4, Switch, PS Vita, and PC via Steam.

The fact that Super Mario Cereal is happening is a sight to behold in and of itself. But the fact that it also acts as an amiibo makes things even more interesting.

The Super Mario Cereal box teases that its sticker can be scanned in Super Mario Odyssey. However, it seems that it doesn’t really do anything that special as an amiibo.

Reddit user ziiigg, who shared the back of the Super Mario Cereal box earlier today, says that it works like most other amiibo in Super Mario Odyssey. That means when you scan the box, it can go look for Power Moons. There is just a slight, neat touch though – players are told that the Super Mario Cereal is a “delicious” amiibo.
