Attack on Titan 2 Reviews
Omega Force prove that lightning can strike twice with a stellar follow-up to their successful first Attack on Titan game
Attack on Titan 2 is a surprisingly solid Action RPG with unique combat mechanics and a traversal system that's probably the closest thing we're going to get to feeling like we're Spider-Man until Insomniac's take on the character drops later in the year.
Overall, Attack on Titan 2 is an improvement from the first installment of the series. This game will be enjoyed by fans as well as newcomers. I hope the game gets the attention it deserves. I hope to see continued growth as this video game series develops. My hope is that further entries will have more replayabilty and improved audio.
Overall, if you've watched the anime, you won't get anything else out of this game other than the fun (and it really is fun) of killing Titans. If you're a newcomer to the series or have only played the first game, Attack on Titan 2 will get you fully caught up with the story to date outside of the manga.
For the majority of the sequel’s playtime, I’d say it’s a real step-up from the first game. Fans of the series ought to do themselves a favor and experience this gory tale for themselves.
More of the same, but not necessarily a bad thing.
This is a strong, strong game by Koei Tecmo, and does the Attack on Titan franchise a great service. Sadly, that's a franchise that doesn't have the pulling power that it did a few years ago, but older fans will enjoy the opportunity to get a new look at the distinctive setting and world
The gameplay is explosive and dynamic, the ODMG is an absolute joy, and there's enough content to keep playing for a very long time. A.O.T. 2 is a must-buy for anime fans and one of the best spin-off musou titles out there.
If you haven't played the previous game, then you're in for a good time with Attack on Titan 2. The combat is fast but not mindless, as mashing on the attack button without thought will easily get you killed. It may lack the political intrigue of the anime and manga, but there's a great deal of story to digest, and there's a healthy amount of playable content. The lack of enemy variety means that the game is best taken in short bursts, but those with even a passing interest in the series will enjoy Attack on Titan 2.
Attack on Titan 2 is not necessarily a bad game, but it's not a type of game that usual hack and slash fans enjoy. Yet, the Manga fans and Manga newcomers will definitely find something here.

Attack on Titan 2 is an improvement on the original game, while taking the best parts from the previous release. If you like fast paced action games, then check this one out.
Attack on Titan 2 is a pleasant surprise as a sequel. It is remarkable to see how the developers have managed to learn from their mistakes and turned the complete game around after a mediocre start.
Fans of the original game will absolutely lap Attack on Titan 2 up, but it's those who are yet to leap into its world, video game or otherwise, that will find it the most rewarding.
Arguably the best anime-inspired game on the market.
The game offers a unique experience, but unfortunately, this experience lacks some final touches to be able to describe it as wonderful and does not miss but when the glitches are repaired and the addition of the last layer of glamour, but if you love the series this game must be acquired

Attack on Titan 2 will be an entertaining experience for the series fans, but it feels more like a continuation of the first game rather than a true sequel.

This sequel still manages to be a solid playable ode to Hajime Isayama hit manga/anime.
The story is solid, though, as is the overall presentation. You don't need to be a fan of the franchise to enjoy this game, but I have no doubt that true fans are going to find even more to love than I did.
While it gets off to a painfully slow start, A.O.T. 2 (Attack on Titan 2) ends up being an extremely pleasant surprise. It's a solid adaptation of one of the better anime franchises around right now, and the gameplay is definitely solid.
The mechanics and cutscenes capture the essence of the show quite well, making it one of the less-one-note Omega Force games I've played. Unfortunately, the story moves at a plodding pace, and the game falls into more unfortunate strides of repetition than I'd hoped for. It could be better, but as 3DS's Humanity in Chains taught us in 2015, it could also be much worse.
