After the success of Gear Tactics, what kind of turn based "Tactics" spin off game would you like for any of your favorite franchises?

[CenturionNami]

I thought Gear Tactics was kinda of a "my brain explodes in potential" for other games in the same format. Since XCOM has so many mods that let you add equipment from all kinds of games, it's easy to imagine

Like a Metal Gear spin-off where you run and manage a PMC company and do stealth turned based tactical operations. Peace Walker and V had a REALLLY addicting mini-game centered around this. Just expand it, and put in a full rendered 3D battlefield.

Or a HALO ODST focused spin off, whereas you control a group of Helljumpers against the alien threat.

Or a Resident Evil one; could be controlling Blue Umbrella and managing it's day to day operations against bioterroism. Put a heavy emphasis on Survival Horror aspects to add to the tactics formula.

It could be applied to any military-focused video game, and I think it'd fit for most of them.

LEGO: Total War.

I kinda burned out on Pokémon in the 90's, but I'd sure buy a Switch if there was a big Pokémon tactics game.

 

[Gloomz]

Final Fantasy

Wasn't there a Fire Emblem crossover?

 

[Soundtrack2chaos]

Mass effect could work

 

[Lobster Roll]

I would kill for a return-to-form for Final Fantasy Tactics that borrows a similar approach from XCOM but still has it feel like a grounded, original FFT game.

 

[Ralemont]

Dragon Age

 

[Catshade]

...Silent Hill Tactics?

There was Pokémon...Conquest? Maybe? I think it was a DS game. I don't really remember it being the scale I'm looking for though.

Play Pokemon Conquest.
So good

Fallout.
Unless Microsoft forms a new studio specifically for working on Fallout or forgoes The Outer Worlds IP, we're not getting ANY new Fallout game for at least 8 years. A Fallout Tactics game could sorta scratch that itch.

 

[Caiusto]

Fallout by inXile don't @ me

 

[Ra]

Mass Effect would translate incredibly, into the turn based tactics genre.

 

[Anno]

Play Pokemon Conquest.

Okay yeah that is what it's called. I looked at it a bunch back when it launched, but it just didn't appeal to me much.

I think I still have my DS somewhere so maybe I'll take another look.

 

[ngower]

It blows my mind there hasn't been a Heroclix adaptation to video games.

 

[Deleted member 2317]

While we all yearn for the return of the king Final Fantasy Tactics, I think a Resident Evil tactics game focused on both rural and urban BOW outbreaks would in kind of be a dream come true?

 

[DuvalDevil]

Halo!

 

[Diarrhea Day-Lewis]

Mario + Rabbids just getting ignored?

but yeah MGS would very well. And what was that old strategy game Nintendo made in the 2000s? Battalion Wars? That would be a great turn based strategy game for sure!

Spoiler: Spoiler

im joking, I really miss Advance Wars.

 

[Iron Eddie]

Any fighting game like Mortal Kombat.

 

[Deleted member 10737]

splatoon tactics. it would be really hard to mess that up, imo.

 

[Doomguy Fieri]

Blizzard wants to make phone games, they should make a TBS StarCraft phone game. That's a weird dream game of mine.

 

[Green]

Eh, Halo might be cool - already works well for strategy.

 

[Voyevoda]

Yakuza Tactics.

Omi Vs Tojo wars in an alternate timeline. Move returning characters and family captains on a grid-based Kamurocho+Sotenbori.

 

[Fraxin]

FFXIV Spin off turned into tactics game.

Thanks to April fools I still want it to come to fruition.

 

[Qwark]

Probably not what you're imagining, but Metal Gear Ac!d was pretty awesome. It's not canon though so that spinoff franchise is probably dead.

And my pick is Final Fantasy Tactics :( Please

 

[DarkplaceGarth]

Couldn't be squad based I guess but I've always wanted a turn-based/tactics Dishonored game. I never have the actual gaming skill to fully stealth through most of those levels, but if I had a solid grid and squares to blink to (always hated how finicky hovering that blink circle is) it would be fun to plan out routes. Or even real time tactics like Desperados III would work, I basically just want top down Dishonored because I suck at fps stealth

 

[Z-Brownie]

forza tactics

 

[Ushay]

Mass Effect would actually work really well.
The could do a prequel tactics game.

 

[Deleted member 77016]

An X-Com style game set in the Half Lofe universe would be great.

 

[Damn Silly]

Mass Effect. Plenty of the powers would transfer over.

 

[2CL4Mars]

Call of duty...yeah I said it.

 

[Zedark]

Dragon Age Tactics. That seems like a franchise that fits really well, and they have a lot of lore to pick a story from.

 

[Gotchaforce]

In Xcom and Gears Tactis they say overwatch a million times so Overwatch Tactics.

 

[Mercador]

Final Fantasy Tactics ! Oh wait.

 

[Adder7806]

Rainbow Six Siege Tactics

Titanfall Tactics

 

[Amibguous Cad]

Destiny!

 

[nekkid]

Counter-Strike

Using the same maps and everything, same goals (combat, bomb diffuse, hostage rescue)

 

[Goddo Hando]

give me a really well done simpsons tactics.

 

[ginge]

Age of empires skyrim edition with PvE elements against dragons and giants etc etc

 

[Lemony1984]

Forza.

 

[Chairman Yang]

A heavily story-driven Overwatch tactics.

 

[MistahS]

Last of Us tactics. With infected working as hazards in battles vs other humans

 

[Chairman Yang]

Has anyone played a game called Left Alive or an older mech game in the same franchise called Front Mission Evolved? Bad games but I can see lots of potential if they went turn-based.

 

[raketenrolf]

Mario + Rabbids just getting ignored?

Click to shrink...

That's what it deserves, considering there's Rabbids in the game.

Also, a new FFT would be cool.

 

[Euler007]

Knack Tactics : The march of the black Knack

 

[Deleted member 29691]

splatoon tactics. it would be really hard to mess that up, imo.

Damn this be wonderful

I'd also love a metal gear tactics

 

[FarSight XR-20]

DOOM (or maybe not).

 

[Mukrab]

Mass effect could work

This would be sick. Or any game that features companions we already love instead of it being just generic classes.

Hyrule Tactics from SE CBIII.
Metroid Wars from IntSys.
