Square Enix has been showing the PlayStation a lot of love lately and it just keeps getting better as Famitsu reveals that a remake of the cult hit Tactics Ogre is planned for a PSP release. Square Enix, Inc. (the North American sector of the company) has confirmed that the remake is getting a U.S. release.

Fans of the Tactics Ogre releases will be pleased to know that a lot of the key staff from the original Tactics Ogre (who just happen to be the team responsible for other PSOne classics like Final Fantasy Tactics and Vagrant Story) are on board for this project. Tactics Ogre was originally released in 1995 for the Super Famicom system and soon after re-released for the Sega Saturn (1996) and Sony PlayStation (1997). Part of the Ogre Battle series, Tactics Ogre carries a tremendously big fan base and is among the rarest of games to find.

The remake will feature revamped 3D battlefields, new “Battle Skill” abilities, new (and unspecified) characters while still maintaining a 16-bit look. Though  the original Japanese remake of the game is subtitled The Wheel of Fortune the U.S. release will be called Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together and will also feature a rearranged soundtrack with 15 new compositions. No date has been announced but the press releases promise a future date is coming.
