Vanguard Bandits Smashes Its Way Onto The PlayStation®Network On Tuesday, Nov. 15

It's been a busy month here at MonkeyPaw Games. We released BurgerTime World Tour on Xbox® LIVE Arcade on November 2nd and we will release the game on the PlayStation®Network on November 15th. On the same day, we will also release yet another rare PSone® Classic from the RPG vault. Together with our friends at GaijinWorks, we’ll bring you Vanguard Bandits.

Vanguard Bandits was originally released in glorious box form from famed publisher Working Designs. Created by Human Software and released in 1998 in Japan, the game captivated users with its tactical combat and support-centric strategy role-playing. Set in a medieval fantasy world, armored mecha are controlled by the residing pilots who can maneuver on an isometric grid of squares. 3D battle animations take place over the grid, while cut scenes play out the story. The character list, location variety and event schedule add up to an incredible amount of intense gameplay and longevity spread over three story branches and five different endings.
