Well, at least in Japan it is. Actually, it sounds like its confirmed for the US too. It is going to be called Tekki Taisen(in Japan), which translates to Tekki Wars. So it will probably just be called Steel Batallion Wars. I never got a chance to play Steel Batallion, and I really wanted to, but I just really couldn't rationalize 200 bucks for one game. Has anyone here played it? If I have the money, I might pick this one up. But I hope that I would also be able to find the first one somewhere, to make the purchase more worthwhile.
The article is kind of slim and vague, but here it is anyways:
Tekki Online Becomes Tekki Wars
More details for Steel Battalion's Online counterpart coming soon.
April 23, 2003 - Capcom of Japan has updated its Tekki (Steel Battalion in Japan) website with the first solid bit of information on the game's Online counterpart. Previously referred to as just Tekki Online, the game is now being referred to by its official name of Tekki Taisen, which translates to Tekki Wars.
The site provides a few teaserish comments on the game:
Tekki has evolved
Tekki is being reborn an Online game
Meet your friends who own Tekki on the battlefield
Will you be friend or foe on the new battlefield of Tekki?
Tekki has evolved
Look forward to Tekki Wars.
The Japanese is far more dramatic, but we trust you get the point.
The site promises that the May 16 and 23 issues of Japanese publication Weekly Famitsu will feature more information on the game. Expect details then.
