Developer Forever Entertainment has announced that strategy RPG Front Mission 2: Remake is arriving on October 5th exclusively for the Nintendo Switch. There’s no official word regarding other platforms, but we may hear about that eventually if Forever’s track record with Front Mission 1st: Remake is anything to go by. Fans are surely pleased to hear confirmation about the launch, at least. Check out the announcement trailer below.
Front Mission 2: Remake Overview
12 years have passed since the second Huffman conflict. The impoverished People’s Republic of Alordesh has been suffering a severe economic decline ever since the war ended. In June 2102, soldiers of the Alordesh Army rise up and, led by Ven Mackarage, declare independence from the O.C.U. (Oceania Cooperative Union).
Ash, an O.C.U. soldier, manages to survive the ensuing battle, but Alordesh is completely overrun by the Revolutionary Army. Ash and his surviving teammates infiltrate Alordesh’s chaotic underground in an attempt to escape the country. However, they soon discover that there is a huge conspiracy behind the coup.
In FRONT MISSION 2, the perspective switches between three characters: Ash, Lisa, and Thomas, creating a worldview that goes beyond a simple dichotomy between good and evil.
