![]() Recently, Square Enix tried to bring it back with Left Alive, which is set in the same universe, but it certainly wasn’t what the fans wanted. ![]() If you’re unfamiliar with Front Mission, it’s a classic tactical JRPG franchise that debuted in Japan in 1995 on Super Famicom. The game is slated for worldwide release on multiple platforms, including mobile. By depicting the developmental process of the powerless under the fog of war, players will witness this world’s evolution together, using their understanding of helplessness to explore the roads to an inevitable tragedy.įront Mission: Borderscape is head-produced by BlackJack Studio, the successful developers of Langrisser Mobile. The vision for this new entry, Front Mission: Borderscape, focuses on the eve of the Second Huffman War and the escalating secret regional conflict. Supervised by Square Enix and developed by BlackJack Studio, “Front Mission: Borderscape” is a brand-new project set in the world of Square Enix’s legendary “Front Mission” series. The stories about humanoid weapons and their pilots will unfold through battles intertwined with blood and tears. In this world, society is secretly puppeteered by a large federation composed of various countries, and constant regional conflicts have become the destructive norm. Front Mission 2089 was a new frontier for the series, mainly as it was the first game made for the mobile phone.Here’s how Square Enix describes Front Mission: Borderscape:įront Mission is a futuristic dystopian warfare-themed game series produced and published by Square Enix. It was released in 2005 with periodic episode downloads, which were released on a monthly basis. The story of Front Mission 2089-I takes place in 2089, one year before the 2nd Huffman Conflict. Players can choose to fight for the OCU or the USN, but story and character development remain the same in both cases. The only thing that changes with that option is the main character artwork.įront Mission 2089: Border of Madness for the Nintendo DS covers the entire 2089-I story. Rather than let the player choose which side to fight for, Border of Madness uses the OCU cast of characters from Front Mission 2089-I. While 2089-II was not fully included, parts of it are there as a means to tie the two games together. New plot elements were added to help tie the 2089 mini-series into the main series, along with recurring characters from the other games. ![]() The main protagonist, Storm is a mercenary and a former OCU soldier. He belonged to an OCU unit known as B.A.T.S., but resigned from his post for unknown reasons. Storm travels to Huffman Island in search of employment and was recruited by Falcon.įalcon is an OCU commander who is assigned to working with mercenaries on Huffman Island. Perceived as a boring and dull man, Falcon prioritizes his work above all else. He does, however, treat mercenaries as if they were members of the military. Visually, Front Mission 2089-I is essentially a watered down Front Mission 1st. One notable change is the character artwork, which is noticeably more anime-influenced than the other games. This isn’t much of a concern as mobile phones aren’t necessarily built for video games. The music is mostly the same as in Front Mission 1st as well, with some tracks from Online. Aside from the presentation elements, Front Mission 2089-I also plays out a lot like Front Mission 1st. There is a ranking system for missions like in Front Mission Alternative and Front Mission 3, there’s really nothing new for this entry in the series. ![]() Therefore, the game can be seen as an introduction for newcomers. Front Mission 2089-I is a Japan-only release. The continuation of the Front Mission 2089 series was released for mobile phones in 2006. As with its direct prequel, periodic episode downloads were made available on a monthly basis.
