Today, during its latest Nintendo Direct broadcast, the house of Mario and Zelda announced Front Mission 1st.
This is a full remake of the original Front Mission coming in 2022. It’s developed by Forever Entertainment and it’s likely one of the Square Enix franchises teased by the developers a few months ago, and we totally called it.
On top of that, Front Mission 2 will also come at a later time.
You can check out the announcement trailer below.
Here are the details provided by the developer:

If you’re unfamiliar with Front Mission, it’s a classic tactical JRPG franchise that debuted in Japan in 1995 on Super Famicom.
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. Now, we’re finally getting the real thing.
