It's german and it means 'the will to power' - kind of weird-sounding, but there ya go.

As Arledrian said, it means "The Will to Power" I have no idea why the the Japanese creators of the game wanted a German name |

Yes it is German...and yes, it is the Will for Power...and the Japanese like the German language for some reason...in the Anime, Neon Genesis Evangelion, most of the company names are German. There is Nerv, German for nerve, Gehirn, German for brain, and Seele, German for soul.

Well, i've always heard the phrase "The will to Power" associated with the German Philosopher Nietsczche (or however you spell it) so I would assume that is why it is in German.
