In this interview, David Verfaillie, Design Director at Double Helix, discusses transitioning the Front Mission series to Front Mission Evolved and how the studio collaborated with Square Enix.

Front Mission Evolved is a third person shooter following in the footsteps of Front Mission Online and Front Mission: Gun Hazard, a Super Famicom side-scroller from Culdcept Saga developer Omiya Soft. Unlike other Front Mission titles, this isn’t a strategy RPG. One of these on the USN side is destroyed at the beginning of the game and Dylan Ramsey, an engineer who also proves to be a capable fighter, stumbles into the army. Front Mission Evolved takes place after the events of Front Mission 5 where mankind use orbital elevators to explore space.
