Front Mission 2: Remake is a remake of the 1997 tactical Japanese RPG. In the game we command a squad of mechs in turn-based combat missions.
Front Mission 2: Remake is a remake of a tactical jRPG that was never published outside of Japan. The original, released in 1997 for the first generation of the PlayStation console, was developed by the G-Craft studio. In turn, its refreshed edition was created by the Polish team Forever Entertainment.
The game takes us to the year 2102, to the country of Alordesh (former Bangladesh) which is a part of Oceania Cooperative Union/OCN, consisting of Australia and nations of South Asia and Southeast Asia.
The game's campaign begins when a coup occurs in Alordesh, resulting in the military seizing power in the state and, after decimating local OCN troops, announcing their country's departure from the Union.
The plot revolves around three characters from the OCN forces - Corporal Ash Faruk, Captain Thomas Norland and spy agency officer Lisa Stanley. The characters will first have to help evacuate Union personnel from Alordesh, and then try to rescue people captured during the coup. As they do so, they come across information suggesting that the local military has received support from a mysterious outside organization intent on destabilizing the region.
Front Mission 2: Remake develops the ideas from the first part. The game is a classic tactical RPG, in which the campaign is made up of a series of combat missions, allowing you to direct a squad of mechs, called wanzers in the universe of the series.
The gameplay takes place in a turn-based system. Each mech is divided into several parts (arms, legs and body), which can be damaged, affecting the performance of the machine. The game is varied by the honor system. Units surrounded by allies receive bonuses to their stats, while in situations when they are alone and surrounded by enemies their abilities are limited.
Between missions we go to the bases, where we can talk to the characters and improve the equipment and abilities of the pilots. Over time, characters gain talents that allow them to help other members of the squad during clashes. One of the most important is the ability to form duos, allowing two mechs to perform coordinated actions, significantly increasing the power of their attacks.
The game only allows you to play in single player mode.
Front Mission 2: Remake offers a completely new graphics. All elements, including locations, models and textures, were made from scratch. At the same time, the authors took care to keep the specific atmosphere of the series.

Nintendo Insider: 4 / 10 by Cullen Black
This small feature, something easily missable, is emblematic of Front Mission 2 Remake. The art is gone now, and the beautiful contrast of disparate elements with it. It’s all homogenized, safe in a way where love cannot bloom.

After decades of anticipation, the tactical jRPG war gem about combat robots finally makes its debut in the West in a remastered version. A tempting proposition for Nintendo Switch owners that is worth giving in to.
Movies Games and Tech: 7 / 10 by Daniel Waite
Though this doesn’t stand out from its predecessor, I liked the new core gameplay mechanics. Additionally, the story was interesting and the customisation was as great. I loved the elemental weaponry and the balanced use of different weapons. However, the random target system undermines the tactical nuance and that was disappointing. Subsequently, despite the shortcomings I recommend buying it here! Can you escape the revolution? Grab your Wazner, choose your loadout, and hope that luck is on your side.
