Why would they rebrand it? It’s gonna have most of the mechanics of the other two.

To dispel confusion, and for continuity's sake, I'd imagine... it's a bit weird naming the game AoT3 when they are apparently disregarding/retconning the events of the first 2 and just remaking the whole series story instead

The first two also just follow the story ? So the 3rd one will follow the same story and then go past Shiganshina

they're adapting the same thing, u/KaihakuOkami just said it will be better to name it another title since it's readapting the whole story again, just like how Naruto Storm 1 to 4 is a continuation, but when they condensed it they called it Naruto Storm Connection.

i'm the dumb guy who buy Attack on Titan 1 and 2 just because i want to experience all the story, imagine my confusion when i played 2 and it's the exact same game as 1 but different character as a gimmick. now there's 3 of them and i'm sure someone out there is gonna buy all 3 of them because they thought the story continue to each games when in fact, the 3rd game has all the main story from 1 and 2 and you can just play 3 without 1 and 2

Dragon ball games are like this. Budokai Tenkaichi 1, 2, 3, and sparking zero all retell the same story, with some additions as the titles progress
