Square Enix's Front Mission series has always been more popular in Japan than here in the States, which is why we have seen so few of them. However, the publisher decided to grace us with a port of the PSOne remake of the SNES original. The DS version takes the upgraded version and tacks on a few special features that only it could provide. The game is a tactical, grid-based role-playing game (RPG) in the strictest sense, deviating very little in its combat setup.
Front Mission 1st, a remake of Square Enix’s classic SNES tactical RPG, is coming to the PS4 following a period of Switch timed exclusivity. The spruced up HD re-release first launched on Nintendo’s hybrid hardware late last year, but now Trophies have started to populate on Sony’s servers, suggesting a PS4 port announcement is imminent.
Good thing I kept putting Front Mission for Switch off. Now let me play Harvestella for trophies.
Please tell me a Steam release is on the cards too, I could get it on Playstation, but I'd rather Steam (either way, I can remove it from my Switch wishlist).
The release date, as well as other details, have been revealed for the Front Mission 1st Wander Arts Zenith Variant Action Figures.
Square Enix seems to be fully determined to bring back a few of its most glorious mecha franchises, but maybe not in the way most fans would expect.
