A classic tactical RPG returns! The second game in the main Front Mission storyline is finally available outside of Japan for the first time.
FRONT MISSION 2: Remake blends intense strategy with a deep and involved storyline.
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 Mackarge, 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: Remake, the perspective switches between three characters: Ash, Lisa, and Thomas, creating a worldview that goes beyond a simple dichotomy between good and evil.
FRONT MISSION 2: Remake preserves the mature story, strategic turn-based combat, and Wanzer customization options of the original. Enjoy the revitalized classic with updated visuals and new features and enhancements!

Storyline
Set in the year 2102, twelve years after the events of the first Front Mission, the story takes place in Alordesh, a member state of the Oceania Cooperative Union simmering with anti-OCU resentment. When the Alordeshi military stages a sudden coup and declares independence, its forces overrun the local OCU garrisons and plunge the country into chaos. The tale follows three individuals caught in the uprising, corporal Ash Faruk, captain Thomas Norland, and intelligence officer Lisa Stanley, whose separate struggles to survive, rescue prisoners, and fight back gradually intertwine as they uncover the hidden powers backing the coup and pilot the mechanized war machines known as wanzers.
