Attack on Titan 2

Sign in to edit

Attack on Titan 2 (進撃の巨人2, Shingeki no Kyojin 2), localized as A.O.T. 2 in Europe, is the second Omega Force adaptation and Koei's third collaboration title for Hajime Isayama's Attack on Titan. It was first announced on-stage at the 2017 Gamescom trade fair. The story has been expanded to include the second season of the animated TV series.

Hideo Suzuki is the director and Hisashi Koinuma is the producer of the upcoming game, Attack on Titan. The game aims to be faithful to the source materials, including comics and animated series, in visual presentation, character animations, and Titan AI. The game also aims to cater to fans' love for the series's characters, with a larger cast of playable characters, edit characters, and an affinity system.

Audio dubbing will be Japanese only internationally. Koinuma commented that he would have liked to have had English voices recorded for this series, but planning for these recording sessions was too difficult to schedule and implement with an international release. The other option was to extract the entire Japanese vocal track for the sake of English dubbing, which Koinuma is aware has its detractors with anime fans. Text-only translation is the compromise.

Consumers who pre-order the packaged version receive a serial code for Eren and Levi's casual clothes early; digital buyers receive Christa and Ymir's casual clothes early. The Treasure Box edition includes a materials book, a soundtrack CD, eight character pins, and a poster. The Gamecity & Amazon Set adds a giant Levi tapestry, a tapestry with characters in casual clothing, and a serial code that grants Annie and Jean's casual clothes early. Digital Deluxe Edition purchases bundles all of the game's DLC.

Gameplay[]

  • ODM Gear include more maneuvers seen in the TV series and to go higher heights than the first title. Animations for the wires and propulsions have been sped up. The "Hook Drive" (boosting with gas while attacking) includes an additional feature that allows player characters to automatically circle behind their target.
  • Regiment levels up allow for the development, sale, and equipping of new items, including smoke screens for Titan evasion and cannons for field strengthening.
  • "Surprise Attacks" allow players to analyze Titan behavior from a distance using the monocular. Press L2 to lock onto the target and, if undetected, the player's attack will deal greater damage.
  • Bases have been added to the battlefield. They have three major types:
Supply - replenishes all of the player character's items.
Mining - increases material output after a battle's conclusion.
Frontline - raises allies' abilities if they are within the vicinity of the base.
Once the player has unlocked a certain Regiment level, bases can be strengthened. Maximum level cap is three. Players can claim a base by launching a smoke signal.
  • "Buddy Actions" from the previous title features new animations like catching falling allies, latching onto Titans for a unified strike, and special Titan team-ups.
  • Rescuing captured characters now imposes a cooldown timer that impedes both parties after a successful escape.
  • Titans come with a new "Alert Level" feature that will show up on the mini-map. A Titan's icon will gradually fill up based on their level of sluggish awareness to the player characters. If the alert level reaches maximum potency, the Titan will act in a hyper-aggressive "Danger Zone" state and are likely to perform actions that are closer to the original source material such as erratic jumping and flailing. It's advised to cancel this effect by relying on grenades.
  • Camp has been renamed "Daily Life Part" to include more moments of the characters at their leisure. Conversations and character-centric side story missions have been beefed up; these events aim to cater to fans of either the comic or the TV series, with bonus scenes that are wholly original to this game. Characters can appear in casual clothing during this section.
  • Series characters now have affinity levels, allowing players to increase intimacy through presents, conversations, and birthday congratulation. High intimacy levels unlock skills, events, and policies, and allow offline mission partners.
  • Standard online co-op now allows the option to join other players' games from around the world. Matching will only be compatible between players of the same console (i.e. Switch players can only play with other Switch players). Materials can be shared between two players to speed up gear enhancements. If a player is disconnected during play, their character be dormant and will not be replaced by AI or a NPC.
  • "Casual" difficulty lowers the hardness of battle sequences so players who aren't familiar with action games can still enjoy the character fan service.
  • Characters can use their casual clothing in battle after they have been unlocked.
  • More original weapons and gear have been added.
  • Attack on Titan save data will reward a small benefit for players of this title.
  • Downloadable content so far includes costumes and scenarios.

Modes[]

Story Mode[]

The game features a main story mode following the first two animated seasons, updated with "Dire Subjugation" Titans. Players can create their own scenario, interact with characters, train, invite series characters, and capture Titans. They can also revamp their protagonist's appearance. Completing the mode unlocks additional characters and features, but one playthrough is required to build bonds with characters who perish.

Another Mode[]

The game's Free Mode based on the player's progress in Story Mode and with all unlocked series characters playable in this mode.

Inferno Mode[]

Unlocked after Story Mode is cleared once. Similar to True Attack Mode. All three difficulty modes will not be in effect this time, but the Titans will still be harder than their settings on Hard difficulty.

Online Mode[]

Two-man co-op is available through "Research Missions," while "Annihilation Mode" is a 4 vs. 4 multiplayer mode where teams eliminate Titans or race to capture bases. Players can earn more materials and earn double points for killing Titans during "Chance Time". In-game communication is limited to text and character gestures. Devour Mode allows players to control Titans and compete for the most points, with players using unlocked Titans.
