Koei Tecmo has just unveiled a brand new game set in the "Shingeki no Kyojin" franchise, otherwise known as "Attack on Titan" in the West. Titled "Attack on Titan: Escape from Certain Death," the game is scheduled to roll out for the Nintendo 3DS in Japan on March 30, 2017.
Unfortunately, as noted by a report from Gematsu, there is no confirmation yet if the game is going to be released in Europe and North America. However, the previous 3DS "Attack on Titan" game did see a Western release, so it is likely that this new game will be ported over as well.
There will be a standard edition of the game which will cost 5,800 Yen, which approximately converts to $52.
A Treasure Box special edition is also being offered, and this will cost 12,800 Yen or $115. The Treasure Box will come with the game, two waterproof posters, a Mikasa and a Levi 3DS theme with voices download codes, six large tin badges, a visual book, and the game's official soundtrack.
First-print copies of either the standard or Treasure Box edition will come with an Eren 3DS theme with voice download code. First-print copies of the Treasure Box will also come with an Erwin 3DS theme and voice download code.
"Escape from Certain Death" is going to feature an original story and focuses on a member of the Survey Corps exploring the world outside the wall. However, this character gets entangled in a Titan assault and crashes into the depths of an old, abandoned castle.
Unfortunately, the players cannot escape because their Three Dimensional Maneuvering Gear has been destroyed, and they must now explore the depths of the castle to find a way out and survive. It is stated that some characters from the series will be making an appearance.
No gameplay has been shown in the reveal trailer, although it is hinted that this is going to be a puzzle adventure game instead of the traditional action game that most "Attack on Titan" games focus on.
