More Anime Games Coming Out in 2018 After 'Dragon Ball FighterZ'
There's plenty of interest for Anime this year, and not just on TV. A slew of new gaming titles based on popular Japanese series is coming up in 2018, as already led by the recently launched "Dragon Ball FighterZ."
Arc System Works has succeeded in bringing an authentic Anime feel in the launch of "Dragon Ball FighterZ," with a focus on high-octane animation and simple but deeply engaging gameplay. Now, more titles are coming up to try to do the same, starting with the new "Attack on Titan" and "Naruto" games coming out in the following months.
"Attack on Titan 2" is a follow-up to the first game by Koei Tecmo and is due to come out on March 20 for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC and Nintendo Switch. It will also follow the story of the second season of the TV series, and that means a lot of the new characters introduced in season 2 of the anime show will be coming over to the game as well, according to Gamespot.

The ever-popular "One Piece" franchise, meanwhile, has not one but two games coming this year. "One Piece: Grand Cruise" will be a virtual reality title onboard the Thousand Sunny, and will come out for the PlayStation VR later this year.
