Double Helix has divulged some of the gameplay details for Front Mission Evolved, and apparently there will loads of customization options for single and multiplayer.

“There are a lot of customization options in terms of color, surface material, hardened arm plates, body, weapons shield amount,” development director Jeremy Lee told The Gaming Vault at E3.

“Pretty much every single weapon, everything in the Front Mission universe is present. We add a lot to the universe on top of what is already there while still fitting in with the Front Mission idea, and include a massive amount of customization which, with the new gameplay, should keep the experience quite fresh.

“The multiplayer experience is definitely a separate experience. What we are meaning to do with that is to make it team-based – very very team friendly. So you can form up with friends, create a team and customize your team in a way you really want to.

“I won’t go into the online experience very much but, ‘ok I’m going to be the sniper, you’re going to be the heavy hitter, you’re going to be the support’… it allows you to develop strategy.”

Front Mission Evolved has gone from a strategy title, to an action title, and apparently shooters are to blame for the change.

According to the game’s development director Jeremy Lee, Double Helix decided to change things around so players can feel what it’s like to be in a “Wanzer yourself in and action setting.”

“We have been playing a lot of action games over the last year or so – Call of Duty and Rainbow Six: Vegas mainly,” Lee told The Gaming Vault during E3. “We as a team have always wanted to do something like this and this particular franchise we decided would fit in and be a great opportunity. The gameplay is kind of like the Call of Duty experience, where you have two teams with one goal to work for.

“For some people it would be very shocking for Front Mission to be an action game, previous Front Mission games have fun in different areas before, but now there are Front Mission alternatives in RTS, which is its traditional haunt.

“The Front Mission universe is big enough to hold different genres, so we think that when people get the chance to feel what its like to be in a Wanzer yourself in an action setting, we think they’ll really like it – it feels really good.”

Still no exact date for release, but its has been rumored for a March 2010 launch on PC, PS3 and Xbox 360.
