A new version of the popular tactical jRPG, developed by MegaPixel Studio from Poland. Front Mission 3: Remake allows us to participate in turn-based battles using mechs called wanzers. This new version offers refreshed graphics and music, including a dubbing during cut-scenes.
Front Mission 3: Remake is a new version of the 1999 game, created from scratch. The original game was released on PS1 by the Japanese Square Enix. The remake of this tactical jRPG about mech battles was developed by MegaPixel Studio from Poland.
In the remake of Front Mission 3, just like in the original, we are dealing with an RPG gameplay that emphasizes the story and is based on turn-based battles between wanzers. These modified bipedal machines are controlled by us on tiled arenas, and each move costs additional action points. Victory involves immobilizing enemy mechs by damaging their mechanical limbs or disarming them.
The purpose of our struggles, however, is not only to defeat opponents, but also to protect a designated wanzer or to reach a specific location on time. Some machines are piloted by people inside, and they can get injured and be ejected in an emergency. Additionally, there is an option to take over the remaining mechs, and even to continue the ongoing battle without them.
The game maintains a structure of double narration, so depending on the choices made, we follow one of two plot paths. The added quick battle mode allows for shortening the duration of skirmishes, while thanks to the new camouflage options for wanzers, we can achieve a unique appearance on the battlefield.
Front Mission 3: Remake presents a vision of the year 2112 and tells the story of Kazuki Takemura and Ryogo, who after a routine delivery get entangled in an armed conflict. Depending on the choice made at the beginning, we can ally with Alisa or Emma Klamsky to investigate events related to the secret M.I.D.A.S. weapon project. Each of the plot paths addresses the topic of military tensions, corporate involvement in them, and technological threats.
Both the audio and the visuals have been refreshed. The graphics were revamped, adding three-dimensional effects and making the battle animations smoother. The user interface was also modified. Moreover, Front Mission 3: Remake allows to switch between modern and classic settings.
In addition to using musical recomposition, voices were added to the cutscenes, of which there are many in the game.

Video Chums: 7.5 / 10 by A.J. Maciejewski
The original is one of my favourite SRPGs of all time and FRONT MISSION 3: Remake does a decent job of modernising the gameplay. However, its downgraded visual assets often make its aesthetics feel cheap. ??
Hey Poor Player: 3 / 5 by Andrew Thornton
Front Mission 3 Remake at its best is held back by a weak story and characters, but the best gameplay in the original trilogy means there is absolutely fun to be had by players more focused on the strategic battles and mech customization. The core game mostly holds up after all these years. The awful aesthetic choices, though, make this the sort of remake that is hard to recommend because it’s a worse experience in many ways than the version that came out over a quarter century ago.
Niche Gamer: 9 / 10
Thankfully, we are still getting remasters of their once-known greatness. Front Mission 3: Remake is a fantastic remaster of an all-time classic, and is no exception to that very clear and objectionable fact that Squaresoft no longer exists, and we are left with Square Enix, a mere shadow of its former self.
