The game will be releasing July 5th in the West, while a day earlier in it’s native lands of Japan. The expansion will also be arriving on all the same platforms, being PS4, XB1, Switch and PC.
Along with this, we also have some insight as to what this Expansion will offer. The meat of the content will focus on the third season of the Anime, making the total character tally at over 40, as well as new weapons, new original episodes and more! A new mode has also been confirmed known as Wall Reclamation Mode, which sounds quite like the basics of an Empires game. You form your own non-canon Squad, and go out conquering and defending territories from the Titans.
A few final details, for those who already own the original Attack on Titan 2 game, there will be a downloadable upgrade pack available, that will offer all the additional content “Final Battle” will bring to the table.
Now to leave this post off, have a gander at the new trailer that came with this announcement!

It has been a while since we have had any news related to KOEI Tecmo’s Attack on Titan series, and while we are not getting whiffs of a third entry to the series, there has been some interesting news surfacing out of Taiwan.
While KOEI Tecmo have not announced anything formally themselves, the Taiwan Digital Game Rating Committee has rated a title called Attack on Titan 2: Final Battle, listed for Playstation 4, Nintendo Switch and PC (XBOX One didn’t get a release in Taiwan, it’ll likely receive equal treatment in the West). Along with this news a ‘Final Battle Upgrade Pack’ (also listed for same platforms) has been rated, meaning it is likely that whatever the ‘Final Battle’ edition of the game has on offer, if you own the original game you can purchase the content presumably at a cheaper price.
We will have to wait and see a little longer when KOEI Tecmo announces the title themselves with what it will actually offer, and if it is worth us revisiting the game.

We have updated our A.O.T 2 game page with a bundle of new content including trailers, screenshots and packshots! Be sure to immerse yourself in all the content you can for the upcoming anime neck slashing game from KOEI Tecmo / Omega Force.
We will be adding more content to the page throughout the lead up to it’s release. We also have A.O.T 2 planned to be reviewed also, though we are still yet to decide if it will be the PS4 or Switch (maybe both) versions of the game. Hopefully that will be published soon after the games release (or maybe a little before).
A.O.T 2 releases 20th March in the West for PS4, Nintendo Switch, XB1 and PC via Steam.
With 2018 now officially starting, we can take a look at the not too distant future into the year and see what Koei Tecmo is releasing for us! Note this is only currently announced items, we won’t be going into rumours, speculations or wishes!
First up is Dissidia: Final Fantasy NT – A collaborative title between Square-Enix and KT’s Team Ninja. In similar vein to Dead or Alive, this is a 3D fighter game. But what switches things up that you get far more control over your character in a 3v3 environment. Characters and levels are taken from numerous Final Fantasy titles, from Cloud (Final Fantasy VII) to Noctis (Final Fantasy XV) to even Warrior of Light (Final Fantasy I).
Boasting an intense story mode not included in the original Arcade release, and massive amounts of competitive content, this is a great start of the Year for you PS4 owners out there!
Next up, and probably Koei Tecmo’s biggest release for this year (so far), Dynasty Warriors 9. A lot of mixed feelings regarding this but it certainly looks like it has a ton of ambition put into this latest title to the Dynasty Warriors franchise. Boasting an open world China, a story spanning the entire Three Kingdoms period from start to finish and more characters than ever before!
Dynasty Warriors 9 will be bringing back high octane slicing and dicing to you guys worldwide in February.
Release: 13/02/2018 Worldwide
Platform: PS4, XBOX One, Steam
Now not an actual game, but continued support for one of the better titles released from KT last year. Fire Emblem Warriors DLC Pack #2 and #3 will be releasing in 2018. Included in both these packs, dubbed Shadow Dragon Pack and Awakening Pack respectively, you’ll be granted to a bevy of more playable characters, History mode maps, weapons and more! All included for free if you picked up the Season Pass or you can purchase these pack’s individually as they release (first pack already out) from your Nintendo devices eShop.
We don’t have solid release dates for these yet aside the month they will arrive. But judging how Nintendo deal with their release plans, we will likely find out a week before, if not THE week it releases. No doubt on a Thursday.
Release: Pack #2 (Feb 2018), Pack #3 (Mar 2018)
Platform: Nintendo Switch, New 3DS
The penultimate game on our line-up list, is A.O.T 2 (Attack on Titan 2 for you yanks) which brings up to 4 player cooperative naked giant slaying. Along with promising a more intense experience from the original game released back in 2016, you will also be able to create your own Scout and take him/her out into the online world to fight alongside other player’s Scouts against the giant menace.
With friendship systems, an anime focused story and well, neck slicing, this is definitely a game to keep an eye out for this March.
Release: 20/03/2018 Worldwide
Platform: PS4, XBOX One, Steam, Nintendo Switch
Last but not least, we have one for you JRPG lovers out there. If you are still lusting for more Gust goodness after Blue Reflection last September, or wanting to concluded the “Mysterious” trilogy then this will be a necessity in your collection. Follow the lives of twins Lydie and Suelle as they try to achieve their dream of running the top atelier for their kingdom; Adalett.
Expect beautiful Cel shaded visuals, corny dialogue and a story that’ll take you through all kinds of various synthesising antics. Be sure to get your anime style RPG on this March.
Release: 03/27/2018(US), 30/03/2018(EU)
Platform: PS4, Steam, Nintendo Switch
