Attack on Titan Reviews

The audio side of Attack on Titan is good, but not great. Whether it’s due to licensing or other forms of external issues, the iconic opening songs and themes from the anime are curiously absent. This is by no means a deal-breaker, but for fans of the anime, it would have been nice to have the iconic theme songs included. The music provided is great at setting Attack on Titan‘s tone, however, so the lack of anime music is forgivable.

Attack on Titan well-honed grasp on the maneuvering and combat style create an incredibly exhilarating experience that is great in small doses but can feel a bit repetitive once you clear the relatively short story.

This is another one of those games I’ve played this year that isn’t bad in any sense of the word, but rather incredibly disappointing. Adding more variance to the game in gameplay, mission structure, and environments would easily lift this up to something more recommended. As the game is now, though, Attack on Titan is just another middling title that fans of the license may enjoy, but others will struggle to complete.

Slaying titans is a satisfying, bloody mess thanks to fun and fast combat. The meat of the campaign follows the anime through fun missions and features varied playstyles for each of the characters that matched their personalities well. While the epilogue suffers from serious pacing problems, being able to get through some of its more tedious missions with friends make the extra content a little less of a pain.

Attack on Titan is a fun game that takes what you see on the screen and manages to successfully translate it to your console. Great for both fans of the franchise and those who are interested in checking it out.

An entry that encapsulates the feeling of taking down a mighty Titan while bathing in its blood.

Keep in mind that even though you’re not battling “one million troops” at once, Attack on Titan still sticks to tried-and-true Omega Force sensibilities. It has light RPG elements, but it’s still a hack-and-slash, and those of you who aren’t down with Warriors games will probably get bored after several hours.

Attack on Titan is the latest offering from Omega Force and Koei Tecmo, of Warriors/Musou-style gaming fame. Originally released in Japan earlier in 2016, Attack on Titan is an anime tie-in game aimed towards fans of the manga and anime series. As a fan of the series myself, I was quite interested to see how well they adapted the unique fighting animations as well as the storyline. If you enjoy destruction, fast-paced combat, and taking down hordes of titans, do not sleep on Attack on Titan.

Koei Tecmo's Attack on Titan is certainly the game that fans have been waiting for. It delivers so much of what fans love about the show, and really does a great job of putting you right into the action. Of course, that action is extremely chaotic and repetitive, which also means the game can be as well. This is a problem when it leads to fumbling with the controls, or having to frantically work the camera. However, that is a small price to pay for an Attack on Titan experience like this.
