A lot of fans are anticipating the release of the new "Attack on Titan" action game in North America on August 30, 2016 for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, and PlayStation Vita. This game is made by Koei Tecmo and is based on the popular manga and anime with the same title.
According to an interview made by IGN, Hisashi Koinuma, Koei Tecmo's producer for this game said that the story will be derived from the anime's first season. With that being said, the producer also confirmed in the interview that the "Attack on Titan" game will not draw any elements from the Live Action Movie or the manga itself.
The reason for this is that the first "Attack on Titan" game had some troublesome issues in terms of consistency to its source material. As such, getting the elements from the anime that sparked the intense interest of its worldwide audience was a prudent move for the producers.
In the latest trailer for the game, it showed some footages of the actual gameplay, and it's expected to cater to the more mature audiences. This is because it's ripe with gruesome scenes, with blood, gore and other appendages flying off. Furthermore, it also showed the iconic characters from the anime, such as Mikasa Ackerman and Eren Jaeger, cooperating to take down the ravenous titans and save the day.
A lot of fans are expecting the game to be breathtaking, especially since they will be flitting around with their characters' 3D Maneuver Gear, evading the titans' grasp while making sure that they're disposed off properly.
"Attack on Titan" is originally a manga both written and illustrated by Hajime Isayama, which started in September 9, 2009. Four years later, the first anime adaptation was produced by Wit Studio and Production I.G, airing its first episode in April 2013. Right now, a second season is in the works and is expected to be released sometime in 2016.
