Left Alive is an action-packed game developed by Square Enix and available on Play Station 4. It is a spin-off installment of the popular Front Mission franchise and is set in the year 2127 on Christmas Eve in a fictional East European country called Ruthenia. The game follows three playable characters of Slavic origin, who are left isolated in Novo Slava after the Garmonia Republic army invades the city in what is known as the “One Day Incident”.

The non-linear plot is divided into stages corresponding to the stories of certain characters. The player switches between protagonists throughout the story, all of whom share one goal: to survive in the fierce street battles. The game combines survival action with mecha simulation, including the use of wanzers, the Front Mission’s trademark walking battle robots. The player not only fights against the wanzers, but can also steal and pilot one. Left Alive also features weapon customization and crafting options.
