Forums - Sony - Koei Tecmo's Titan Game Details (PS4 LEAD PLATFORM)

Protendo on 12 August 2015
  • project started of 2013 into January and February 2014.
  • It’s an action game that factors in the elements of being “united with your companions” and the “sacrifice of your companions.” It’s different from what many refer to as a “hunting game.”
  • The game also incorporates ideas offered by the original author Hajime Isayama.
  • The game will follow the original story written by Hajime Isayama.
  • As an action game, Koei Tecmo wants to establish an image where players can move around the world of Attack on Titan as they like. It won’t be a ‘defeat the enemy, progress the story’-type game. At its core, it’s an action game and within that, players will be able to understand the story.
  • The game will start from the beginning of the original story.
  • From its initial planning, Koinuma was moving forward with the title on his own. After becoming managing director of Koei Tecmo in April, Koinuma’s connection to the project became difficult, but he did not move away from development and supervised the game’s direction and management.
  • The game is being developed with PlayStation 4 as the lead platform. Previously, Koei Tecmo would base its games on PlayStation 3, brush it up for PlayStation 4, and release a PlayStation 3-level handheld version for PS Vita. This time, PlayStation 4 is being given priority.
  • The game’s action parts have been built and scrapped over three times—repeated trial and error. The story, side elements, and systems are doing well, though. Somehow, Koei Tecmo wants to release it in Japan “this winter.”
  • The 3D Manuever Gear is the most important element, making sure you move and fight comfortably with it and without compromise.
  • Whether or not the player takes on the role of Eren Yaeger is still a secret.
  • They plan to make the action draw you in with quick and elegant take downs.

    • The Attack on Titan game is due out for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, and PS Vita in North America and Europe in 2016.

    Neat, I'm excited to see how this game will end. If I do end up getting it, I will most likely get it on Vita.

    Haven't got much interest in tbe anime, but I really like the design of the Titans, so if they get the combat down I will definitely be interested.

    All of that sounds good. Now I just need to see it in action.

    As an Attack on Titan fan i'd have to say i'm extremely thrilled for this. Not only is the lead platform the PS4 but it will be using the manga's story!? The release can't come sooner.

    Sweet. I hope that it turns out to be an awesome game and fills fans of Attack on Titan with happiness.

    Well if Tecmo really does want to release it this Winter in Japan, showing gameplay at TGS is almost essential.

    Does the manga story differ much from the anime?

    As for the other stuff that comparison to 'hunting games' worries me. IMO hunting games are just bad and aren't at all fun, so hopefully it isn't just different from that, but very very different.

    Nah the story is the same, it just goes in a somewhat different direction after the end of the anime.
