Attack on Titan 3 Launches with Full‑Series Story Coverage
Attack on Titan 3 arrives December 10, 2026, delivering the franchise’s entire animated saga in a single action‑adventure title.
The game lets players assume a custom‑created soldier from the generation that birthed Levi Ackerman and Zoe Hange, leading Eren, Mikasa and the Scout Regiment through every major plot point.
After a concise tutorial, the experience drops players into the Struggle for Trost arc, where Eren is devoured while saving Armin, and forces the player to defend a boulder‑carrying Eren titan until the gate is secured.
Combat blends vertical maneuvering with targeted strikes; enemies appear in four‑meter classes that require nape blows, while larger abnormals demand attacks on specific body parts to stagger them before the nape can be reached.
Director Hayato Iwata confirmed that the team applied Fire Emblem‑style tea‑party mechanics to foster squad bonds, offering respite between high‑intensity battles and deepening character relationships.
Raid on Liberio Brings Nine Titans to Life
For the first time, AOT 3 includes the Raid on Liberio, allowing players to confront the Nine Titans, including Pieck’s Cart Titan, Porco’s Jaw Titan, Zeke’s Beast Titan and the Tybur Family’s Warhammer Titan.
The mission pits the custom hero and Mikasa against the Warhammer Titan in a prolonged attrition fight, demanding the use of newly learned techniques and Thunderspears to chip away at the enemy’s armor.
Visually, the game retains the series’ stylized aesthetic, which many critics describe as overly childish; characters appear more doe‑eyed than in the anime, a choice that detracts from the source material’s tone.
Despite the art concerns, reviewers note that combat feels polished, movement is fluid, and the game respects the anime’s core narrative while trimming filler content.
Overall, Attack on Titan 3 stands as the most complete licensed release to date, offering fans a faithful yet expanded retelling of Isayama’s story, and is recommended for series enthusiasts.
Rating: Mature 17+ (Violence, Blood and Gore, Partial Nudity, Language).
