Set in the not too distant future, Earth has succumbed to a race of extra-dimensional creatures. With the future of mankind at stake, all hopes for restoring peace and order rest on the shoulders of a young boy, his sister and their rag-tag posse of militants.

With a compelling plot driven story, Future Tactics is a stunningly animated, turn-based tactical RPG (Role Playing Game) built around a highly complex battle engine. In order to survive, players are going to need all their wits about them, making best use of the characters and terrain, in order to blast the invading creatures back to their own dimension.

Fusing together a combination of unique enemy AI and deformable landscapes means that no two games are ever the same. Take turns using ballistic or projectile weaponry to eliminate the enemy over a variety of fully destructible environments. As battles rage, create huge craters, blast buildings into ruins and turn towering mountains into gapping chasms.

Future Tactics is not short on its 'Weapons of Mass Destruction', as players fight titanic solitary battles in Story Mode or engage against human opponents in multiplayer Battle Mode. Turn the tide of the alien invasion. Stand united.

Welcome to the future.
