Ace Custom: Front Mission 5 allows you to upgrade your wanzer parts, which allows them to change to other types if you reach a certain level.

In fact, with the recent news that no more Front Mission video games will come out, it seems likely that the franchise will live on through these mediums. The most successful of these lines are their comics and novels, which are perennial top-sellers in the mature/adult age bracket in Japan.

Largely unknown to the Western world (thanks to Square's HORRIBLE handling of Front Mission overseas), the franchise has a large media presence that includes comics, novels, radio dramas, and even live-action films! In fact, these other Front Mission works are linked to the video games so closely that buying them is practically a necessity to COMPLETELY understand the Front Mission storyline! Japanese fans also liken Front Mission to the famous TV serial 24 as if you take out the mecha, all you get is essentially a slower-paced, more politically-charged 24! And the franchise outside of video games focuses way less on mecha and more on 24-styled action and political drama anyways. These aren't the only things Front Mission is known for. a whopping SEVEN video games from the franchise still remain Japan-only. Sadly, only a handful of titles made it outside of Japan. The genre spin-offs are easy to identify because they don't have a number attached to them, unlike these titles: Front Mission 2089, Front Mission 2089-II, Front Mission 1st, Front Mission 2, Front Mission 3, Front Mission 4 and Front Mission 5. Lastly, the second TPS title through Front Mission Evolved on the Play Station 3, Xbox360, and PC. Front Mission: Online, the first massively multiplayer online (MMO) game and the first third-person shooter (TPS) for the PlayStation 2 and PC. Front Mission Alternative, a Playstation title that ventures into real-time strategy (RTS). Front Mission: Gun Hazard, an SNES title with a Fan Translation that plays out like a side-scrolling shooter obviously sharing a game designer with Assault Suits Valken. The franchise is also well-known for experimenting and venturing into other genres. One on the PC, Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 ( Front Mission Evolved).

Two on the PC ( Front Mission Online and Front Mission Evolved).Two on mobile phones (with a remake for the Nintendo DS called Front Mission 2089: Border of Madness).Three for the Playstation 2 ( Front Mission 4 got released in the United States, Front Mission Online, and Front Mission 5: Scars of the War is Japan-only but has a fan translation).Three for the Sony Playstation ( Front Mission 2 and Front Mission Alternative Front Mission 3 got released in Japan, North America, and Europe).

Two on the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (the original Front Mission 1 translated for Emulation and later remade for the Nintendo DS as Front Mission 1st Front Mission: Gun Hazard also was fan-translated).Failure to equip your Wanzers to pander to your pilots' strengths or at least keep a well-leveled Five-Man Band handy will result in incurring higher repair costs after each battle - or even worse, Unwinnable scenarios due to the (mostly) limited opportunity for grinding.Įleven games in the Front Mission franchise have been released: Easy Logistics and Critical Existence Failure are subverted more heavily than in any other mecha game - for every ten turns you spend pumping bullets into the enemy, you'll spend two running back to your supply truck (or Cool Ship, if you're lucky) to restock ammo and/or repair broken limbs. So what makes it different from other mecha games? For starters, the action comes as Turn-Based Strategy (almost unheard of in mecha fandom upon the game's first release in 1995, save for Super Robot Wars) and applies real-world tactics as much as possible within the genre.

Square Enix's flagship Humongous Mecha franchise, Front Mission throws players into various gritty Real Robot stories as conglomerate nations from Twenty Minutes Into the Future fight for supremacy with Wanzers (short for 'Wanderpanzers' - loosely translated from German, 'walking tanks').
