The Metal Max series is a long-running JRPG franchise centered in a barren wasteland, devoid of any natural life and where your chances of survival are intrinsically linked to however much fuel you have left in your tank. To date, only one other of the Metal Max/Metal Saga games has been localized into English, dating back to Metal Saga on the PlayStation 2. The combination of on-foot and armored tank combat have given the series a unique touch to give it some identity among the dozens of other Japanese RPGs that release every year. Now, more than a decade since the last entry graced Western consoles, Metal Max Xeno has returned with a new wasteland adventure from the publishing team at NIS America.
