The main reason for the gap is that the studio wanted more time to provide fine details in the animation. Also, the writer Hajime Isayama asked the studio to wait so he could write more chapters so that fans do not have to wait for long the next time.
The gap between Attack on Titan Season 1 and Season 2 was about four years, as the first season premiered on April 7, 2013, and the last episode was released on September 29, 2013. Still, after that, it took about four years to release the second season of the anime, which was released on April 1, 2017.
