Front Mission Evolved for spring

Series returns in action format.

Square Enix plans to release Front Mission Evolved here in spring on PC, PS3 and Xbox 360.

Developer Double Helix has decided to resurrect the series in a third-person action format rather than as a strategy game, hence the name.

That means you're a Wanzer - a giant walking robot that goes around shooting and stepping on things and never says sorry.

A "totally immersive storyline", "Hollywood-style production values" and "intense" multiplayer are all promised.

There's also a new batch of Front Mission Evolved screenshots to look at.
