What with the Macross Triangle Frontier’s release around the corner, we’ve been treated to a new promo video for the game. Voiced by Ranka and Sheryl, it spends an unnerving amount of time enthusing about the new Academy Mode. Where the player will be able to live the life of heady student in the Macross Frontier fleet. 4Gamer also has a slew of brand new screenshots too, showing off a variety of new variable fighters for the player to use. We’re just happy to see the VF-9 Cutlass (pictured above) and the VA-1SS Metal Siren in game. The game is still set for a February 3rd release in Japan and you can pre-order it here.

I really want this game, but upgrading my character through an inane dating simulator mode based off Frontier in a language I don’t really understand is just not exciting. I just want to blast my afterburners and race through cityscapes fighting Marduk!
*laughs*
Yeah…I won’t be buying this.
I’m in agreement with Tolarin and SOZ…I loved the first two Artdink Macross games, and this one looks amazing, and has so much….but the school mode/dating sim isn’t my cup of tea, since my Japanese isn’t up to that level.
Still, it looks great, and hopefully Artdink will release another great Macross game. It’s just that this time, I’ll have to skip it.
Honestly even if my Japanese was perfect I’d still pass on this. The first two games were great, but IMO there just isn’t anywhere left to go with this formula. Adding a truckload of laborious moe shite on top of what is basically the same great game that I already own isn’t going to make it any better.
