Bandai Namco has released the first direct-feed screenshots and details for Macross Delta Scramble, its newly announced PS Vita flight action shooting game developed by Artdink.

Get the details below.

■ Game Flow: Missions

Through Missions, you will be able to fly about the Brisingr Globular Cluster which Macross Delta is set and relive the first half of the TV anime (up until episode 13).

Main Missions

Main Missions are made up of situations from the Macross Delta TV anime, where you can intervene with a team that you put together.

Extra Missions

These are difficult missions where you take on special assignments that go beyond the boundaries of the TV anime.

Briefings

During Briefings, you will receive a simple explanation of the mission.

Settings

In the Settings, you can set your player character and Variable Fighter, support units, etc.

Battles

Battles are 3D action shooting segments where missiles fly about all over the field.

Events

Events will spring forth during battle. Perhaps allies and formidable enemies will appear?

Clearing a Mission

By clearing a mission, you’ll obtain money and experience points.

■ Three Transformations

You can freely transform your Variable Fighter between three modes: Fighter Mode to quickly approach the enemy, Gerwalk Mode to deal great damage, and Battroid Mode to fire at enemies all at once.

Fighter Mode

Quickly approach enemy forces with exceptional speed. Fighter Mode is good for striking the first blow.

Battroid Mode

This mode’s job is close combat. Battroid Mode is good for missile-based counterattacks and melee combat.

Gerwalk Mode

Eliminate enemy forces and facilities while still in the air. Gerwalk Mode exhibits its maximum firepower when shooting from a fixed location.

■ Songs and Action Unite

Enjoy a fusion of songs and action. When you activate a songstress skill, the screen will become more and more showy. You can freely set the anime music that will play in the background of mission battles, too.

■ Support Unit System

In addition to songstresses and pilots from Macross Delta, there will also be songstresses and pilots from across the Macross series, with whom players can form a support unit of up to five characters. Of course, that includes the tactical sound unit “Walkure”:

Kaname Buccaneer (voiced by Kiyono Yasuno)
