While the newest game in the popular mecha series Front Mission will be an action game – Front Mission Evolved – Square Enix just announced that Front Mission 3 from the original Playstation will be released on the digital Playstation Store in Europe. No word yet on an American release. Front Mission fans have been somewhat split up over the latest iteration that turned the classic franchise into a third person action game, but this will be a great chance both for old time fans to relive the adventures and newcomers to see the franchise’s roots. More Front Mission details after the jump and a gameplay video of Front Mission 3 from the Playstation release.Front Mission is a strategy RPG series that allows players to control Wanzers, or the game’s basic mech. It originally started out on the Super Nintendo and had gameplay that still stands the test of time against other modern strategy RPGs. The stories are, like any that involves sci-fi and mecha, giant epics that involve several nations and a struggle for power. While this has only been announced for Europe, most frequent Playstation Store buyers know some workarounds to purchase titles from other regions. If this sells well, perhaps we will see another strategy iteration of the series soon.
