Attack on Titan was the anime surprise of 2013, becoming exceedingly popular out here in the West. As we patiently wait for the show's second season to begin sometime next year, we wonder if we'll be able to get our titan-hunting on in videogame form. It sounds like Atlus will be answering that call by publishing Attack on Titan: The Last Wings of Mankind.
The Last Wings of Mankind was a 3DS game developed by Spike Chunsoft and released last December in Japan. Later this year, an expansion that adds various new features, such as online multiplayer, will make landfall. What does this mean for us? It seems that the Australian Classification page has posted a ratings listing for Attack on Titan, indicating that the game is in the process of localization. Despite the fact that this news come from Australia, the publisher is Atlus' USA branch, which means that the game is indeed coming to North America.
The listing makes mention of online interaction, so it's safe to say that the localization will be of the expansion, not the original game. This mirrors the treatment that Bravely Default received — in that case as well, it was the updated expansion that was brought out West. Now we must sit back until Atlus makes an official announcement.
