Omega Force returns to the walls with Attack on Titan 3, set for December 10, 2026 on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, PC, and Switch 2. The game covers the entire anime story from the early Survey Corps days through the final season, told from the perspective of a customizable original character. You play as a veteran soldier sidelined after a failed mission, later assigned as an instructor for the 104th Cadet Corps before leading a recon team. This setup lets the original character cross paths with Eren, Mikasa, and the rest without replacing the main cast.
The core loop mixes base downtime, story missions, and Exterior Scouting Missions. Between battles you upgrade gear, manage a squad, and explore beyond the walls to establish outposts and gather resources. These open areas expand the classic loop of territory control while keeping the focus on high-speed Titan hunting.
Gameplay centers on refined Omni-Directional Mobility gear. Movement feels more responsive than in previous entries. Players gain tighter control over altitude, can anchor to buildings or trees, and execute sharper positioning to create openings. Combat keeps the series’ signature vertical chaos but adds more tactical depth:
- Titans now grab players mid-air, forcing quick escapes or risk of being eaten.
- New unparryable Blazing Attacks require targeting specific limbs to interrupt and create weak points.
- The Nine Titans appear as major encounters for the first time in the game series.
- Control schemes range from Casual (more automated) to Expert for players who want full manual input, separate from difficulty settings that adjust damage balance.
Equipment customization breaks ODM gear into finer parts for crafting, while skills unlock over time to improve both combat and exploration. Previews note the movement as one of the strongest aspects, delivering the series’ signature speed while making Titans feel more threatening through smarter patterns and new attacks.
The single-player campaign is estimated around 40 hours for the main story alone, with original side content and substories that expand on events not fully shown in the anime. MAPPA is producing the opening sequence, which arrives via a post-launch update. Overall, Attack on Titan 3 aims to deliver the complete story with the most polished aerial combat in the series so far, blending Musou-style squad action with the franchise’s unique vertical fighting.
