News - Irem opens R-Type Tactics (PSP) site

Posted by Justin Fassino at 07:26:37 PM EST on 6.11.2007.

Here's an idea: take the classic 2D shooter franchise and turn it into a tile-based strategy game. Well that's just what Japanese developer Irem Software is doing.

They recently launched the official Japanese Web site for the game. So far, not much is known about the title, other than that it will have a multiplayer mode that takes advantage of the PSP's wireless capabilities. We do, however, have some scans for you below, and you can also check out the game's site for more media.

Making a 'tactics' game of a popular franchise seems to be the new millenium's version of making a driving game of a popular franchise.
