Publishers just can't wait for the show floor this year, it seems, as Square Enix has stepped up to announce it's second North American developed project: Front Mission Evolved for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC.Traditionally a mech-based SRPG series, Evolved takes the series in a new direction and gives it some new developers. Being handled by Double Helix (the studio recently responsible for Konami's Silent Hill Homecoming), Front Mission Evolved will be a mech-based action/shooter title, putting players into the driver's seat of their very own Wanzer.
The game will reportedly allow for a level of Wanzer customization, though how true it stays to the series has yet to be seen.
Since this is not an RPG, we will no longer be covering it, but it's nice to see Square Enix branching out a bit. Hopefully this wins them some new fans and doesn't alienate the current ones. (What am I saying? I don't know any avid Front Mission fans.)
