'Front Mission Evolved' (ALL) Papercraft Contest

Front Mission Evolved brings the classic Front Mission franchise into an action-packed third-person shooter that gives players full control of a massive humanoid war machine — the wanzer. Players battle through intense combat situations as they explore an immersive world in both the single-player campaign and online multiplayer.

Front Mission Evolved breaks the mold of the franchise, delivering the action-packed experience of a third-person shooter within the distinct aesthetic of the FRONT MISSION® universe. Set in a world full of destruction, conspiracy and crumbling alliances, players will take on the role of Dylan Ramsey to face enemy armies while in control of a giant, customizable, bipedal tank known as a wanzer. Every wanzer is outfitted with extreme firepower, and players must fight through critical battles across a world on the brink of total war. As they make their way through metropolises such as New York City over 150 years in the future, Front Mission Evolved will embed players in heart-pounding, large-scale action unlike anything they’ve ever seen before.

Square Enix is putting gamers’ creativity to the test in the Front Mission Evolved Papercraft contest, with some great prizes including a four-foot-tall, fully-assembled Wanzer papercraft that you won’t get anywhere else! The grand prize also includes an Xbox 360, a 12-month Xbox Live Gold membership, a copy of Front Mission Evolved and more, while everyone who enters will receive 50 Square Enix Members Points to use on cool Square Enix merchandise.

To enter, just print off the exclusive Zephyr Wanzer papercraft, color it however you want, and snap off a picture of your Wanzer to show the world. Check out the full rules and enter the contest in the Square Enix Members section.

In addition to the single-player campaign, four different multiplayer modes allow players to enter a new battlefield solo or in a team. Players will be able to pit their highly customized wanzers against opponents from around the world so they may prove the superiority of their own war machines.

In the future, the world is a changed place. Technology has advanced. Countries have merged into massive geopolitical blocks. But one thing, sadly, remains the same – humanity’s appetite for war. When a terrorist attack destroys one of the U.C.S.’s prized orbital elevators, the military is mobilized to eliminate the threat.

Dylan Ramsey, a young engineer, finds himself quickly caught in a swirl of destruction, conspiracies and crumbling alliances. Experience his story in this high-octane third-person shooter.

Choose from dozens of weapons and parts, including weapons that can be equipped on both hands and shoulders, to customize your wanzer and blast your way to victory.

When you think you’re ready for a new challenge, join the ranks of online pilots for intense multiplayer battles!
