The classic run and gun shooter, Wolf Fang, was recently released on the Japanese PSN. This was an arcade game from the early 90’s in the same vein as Assault Suits Leynos and Valken, it also received both a PlayStation and Sega Saturn port (though the version on PSN is obviously the former). Wolf Fang has also been getting a bit of a resurgence as of late, as we reported the release of the Video Game Robotics gashapon not that long ago and it featured one of the mecha from the game. In any case, we’re big fans of Wolf Fang and the ability to play it on our PSP is most welcome.

Just wanted to quickly note that Wolf Fang might be slightly more familiar to Western gamers as “Rohga – Armor Force”, although I do have to say that the Japanese title is superior: strangely enough for a Western retitle, “Rohga” doesn’t exactly roll off the tongue as well as Wolf Fang does.
If this is the game I think it is, it’s the unofficial grandfather to Armored Core.
