Hajime Isayama’s hugely successful manga and anime series Attack on Titan is getting a video game adaptation on the Nintendo 3DS, publisher Kodansha has announced via a page in a special booklet that will be included with the 11th volume of the manga series, slated to go on sale in Japan later this week on August 9.

The news comes in from Blogger IEEE802.11, who got early access to a batch of Attack on Titan (also known as Shingeki no Kyojin) volume 11 manga tankoubon and provided the pictures you see below:
The game is being developed by the fine folks over at Spike Chunsoft, possibly best known for their work on the Dangan Ronpa series.
No other details on the Attack on Titan 3DS game was given, but more specifics will be unveiled in the October issue of Betsukan Shounen Magazine that’s slated to go on newsstands in Japan September 9.
The 3DS Attack on Titan game is the first time the manga and anime franchise is appearing as a console video game. Currently, however, there is an Attack on Titan online social game – entitled Attack on Titan: The Wings of Counter-Offense Online (進撃の巨人 -反撃の翼- ONLINE) – available for Web browsers, as well as on the Mobage and GREE mobile gaming networks.
Apart from the 3DS game announcement, the special booklet also revealed that the manga series has surpassed 23 million copies in total sales, and that an Attack on Titan “Another Story” will begin serialisation in Monthly Shounen Sirius.
