About

This series of video games is based on the popular manga and anime franchise Shingeki no Kyojin. It includes action-adventure titles like Spike Chunsoft's Shingeki no Kyojin: Jinrui Saigo no Tsubasa (released in the West as Humanity in Chains) and Koei Tecmo's 2016 tactical action game Shingeki no Kyojin. The franchise also features spin-offs such as the visual novel Shingeki no Kyojin: Shichi Kara no Dasshutsu developed by Ruby Party.

Development of these adaptations focused heavily on replicating the high-speed aerial traversal of the Omni-Directional Mobility gear. The Nintendo 3DS title Shingeki no Kyojin: Jinrui Saigo no Tsubasa (2013) introduced cooperative multiplayer missions, which were later expanded in the updated re-release Shingeki no Kyojin: Jinrui Saigo no Tsubasa CHAIN (2014). This update added internet play, new stages, and difficulty adjustments.

For home consoles, the 2016 release of Shingeki No Kyojin by Omega Force brought the franchise to high-definition platforms, utilizing a physics-based combat system to simulate limb-targeting mechanics against the Titans. This release was accompanied by a collector's edition known as Shingeki No Kyojin [Treasure Box] (2016), which bundled the game with artbooks, soundtracks, and exclusive downloadable content. The narrative of these games closely tracks the early story arcs of the Survey Corps, allowing players to control key characters like Eren Yeager and Mikasa Ackerman. The series transitioned into the escape adventure genre with Shingeki no Kyojin: Shichi Kara no Dasshutsu (2017), which emphasized puzzle-solving and character interactions within a ruined castle setting.
