Attack on Titan and Phantasy Star Online 2 collaborates with a titan themed lobby, room background, and poster. Corps themed outfits, weapon camos, and emblem stickers will also make their appearance.

Recent Post Updates:

Maximum Attack on Titan AC Scratch

This dream collaboration will add costumes and weapon camos from Attack on Titan! You get two versions of each costume, one with or without the 3D Maneuvering Gear. To top it all off, you can get a Ultra-hard Blade weapon camo for Wired Lance and Twin Dagger. Use some photon arts to recapture the exhilaration of the 3D Maneuvering Gear.

 

Aside from that, there's an Attack on Titan poster and scenery pass, plus stickers from each organization.
