Uniquely structured interactive quest launches in 2 stages: OUTSIDE THE WALL June 27 in L.A.'s Little Tokyo and INSIDE THE WALL July 1 inside Anime Expo

San Francisco, Calif. (June 27, 2017)— Kodansha Comics and Funimation are proud to present Attack on Titan Quest: Dedicate Your Heart #AoTQuest, a uniquely structured 2-part interactive quest based on the smash-hit manga and anime series Attack on Titan during the week of Anime Expo 2017.

The game, developed in partnership with the immersive story-gaming platform Conducttr, launches its first stage OUTSIDE THE WALL today June 27 in downtown Los Angeles's Little Tokyo neighborhood. The second stage INSIDE THE WALL takes place July 1-4 inside the Los Angeles Convention Center during Anime Expo. There's no fee to participate—it's all completely free.

Attack on Titan Quest: Dedicate Your Heart is one of several special events and offerings Kodansha Comics is presenting at this year's Anime Expo. All Quest players, whether “outside the wall” or “inside the wall,” will receive via email a unique download code to redeem a free digital edition of the latest volume of Attack on Titan (volume 21) from Comixology.

OUTSIDE THE WALL can be played by anyone with a mobile device who happens to be in Los Angeles's Little Tokyo neighborhood. The theme of this stage is:
