Front Mission 1st: Remake is going the extra mile by including Classic and Modern game modes. In a tweet published earlier today, Forever Entertainment detailed what’s featured in each and the differences between them. We even have a little bit of gameplay.

With the Classic mode in the game, players can expect the soundtrack without any significant alterations, the original camera view, and essentially the same experience as the original. Meanwhile, Modern mode is where more of the remake aspect comes into play with a remastered soundtrack, perspective camera view, and more freedom with the camera thanks to the ability to change the rotation and pitch. On top of that, the team has implemented small fixes and improvements when playing in Modern.

Front Mission 1st: Remake will launch for Switch in November, it’s been announced. Front Mission 2 will follow in 2023. A remake of Front Mission 3 has been confirmed as well, though launch timing hasn’t been confirmed.
