New Attack on Titan 2: Final Battle details
Attack on Titan 2: Final Battle is featured in this week’s Japanese gaming magazines with a new batch of details. Not only is the game itself covered, but a developer interview provides even more insight.
Here’s the full roundup of tidbits:
– The reason they made the new content as an update to Attack on Titan 2 is because Season 3 of the anime lacks the volume to be a game of its own
– Story Mode won’t have an original protagonist
– There will be carryover saves from the previous game
– The “Anti-Personnel ODM” is an equipment that is capable of shooting
– There’s a scene in which you play as Zeke Yeager
– New element called Original Corps where you can use an original protagonist
– Season 3’s episodes in the game will come with a fixed difficulty
– Unclear whether it leans towards more difficult or easy
– Can use characters you’ve raised from other modes as well
– New shooting gear targets nearby objects and locks-on
– That means if you want to aim for the foot of a Titan you’ll need to be closer to its foot, and you’ll need to hook your way up to reach its nape
– The developers heard that it is a little difficult to use, but they say it should be fine as long as you think about positioning
– Shooting the weapon is done by pressing R2 and you can land critical hits when pressed at the right timing
– Can perform a Hook Drive
– The Thunder Spear will be available in Showdown Mode (excluding online)
– There will also be a Gatling gun
– In Territory Recovery Mode, you can select and use your own original protagonist
– Can see moments such as a conversation between Zeke and Levi that wasn’t shown in the anime, and such
– Players will also get to play the previous work in online mode
