Attack On Titan: Humanity In Chains Coming To Nintendo 3DS In North America & Europe

Atlus U.S.A. is bringing Chunsoft's Attack on Titan: Humanity in Chains to North America and Europe. The Nintendo 3DS game is based on the hit Attack on Titan anime and manga, and tasks players with becoming a member of the elite Scout Regiment and defending the three Walls from invading Titans using their omni-directional mobility gear and blades.

Humanity in Chains is based on the upcoming Japanese remake of an earlier  Attack on Titan game, and will be the first Attack on Titan video game available in North America.

Attack on Titan: Humanity in Chains will be available exclusively on the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo 3DS in May 2015, and will include the original Japanese audio and English subtitles.

The official announcement was made during a Nintendo Direct presentation. Here's the teaser trailer shown during the event.
