News: The renamed R-Type Tactics is coming to America courtesy of Atlus.



Back in December, EGM revealed that R-Type Tactics was coming to America. Today, Atlus confirmed it by announcing they would be publishing the newly rechristened R-Type Command for the PSP on May 6.

For those that don't know, R-Type Command brings the side-scrolling shooting of the R-Type series into the strategy genre. So if that sounds like your cup of tea, the game will sport the following features:

  • R-Type reborn - The highly acclaimed franchise moves into the strategy genre with exciting tactical gameplay!
  • Control the Bydo forces - For the first time in the series, take command of the Bydo forces as they launch their assault on Earth!



  • Intense strategy gameplay - With nearly 100 different units at your disposal, it's up to you to choose the best fleet for battle. Upgrade your existing units or purchase new ones!
  • Head-to-head local multiplayer - With the PSP wireless communication feature, play against a friend in Wireless Ad Hoc mode for a one-on-one strategy battle!

    Once again, the game is scheduled to ship on May 6. We'll have more soon.
