Prepare for Interstellar Tactical Warfare! In R-Type Command, you are plunged head-first into a desperate war against the mysterious alien race known as the Bydo. Humanity sends wave after wave of fighters into Bydo space - none of which are ever heard from again. Mankind's main hope now resides with a lone commander sent to lead a small armada on a perilous mission into the heart of the Bydo Empire. Low on fuel and forced to scavenge resources and equipment from his surroundings, the commander must use all his cunning and wits if he hopes to succeed, let alone make it home alive. For the first time in the series, you can take command of the Bydo forces as they launch their assault on Earth. You have nearly 100 different units at your disposal and it's up to you to choose the best fleet for battle. Upgrade your existing units or purchase new ones. With the PSP wireless communication feature play against a friend in Wireless Ad Hoc mode for a one-on-one strategy battle.
