The game was developed by Capcom Production Studio 4[2] and Nude Maker.
Gameplay is similar to that of the previous game, and makes use of the same 2 joystick, 3 pedal, 40 button controller.
Within the game, players engage in mechanized combat using Vertical Tanks, the game terminology for very large bipedal combat platforms.
Vertical Tanks are fictional vehicles that range in height from 8m - 15m in height, with unknown tonnage.
These vehicles are the platform of choice for future combat in the year 2084.
The campaign mode for Steel Battalion: Line of Contact was taken offline on September 30, 2005.[3]
About Xbox
Microsoft's original Xbox (2001) marked the company's first console and stood out for its built-in hard drive and Xbox Live service, which laid the groundwork for modern online console gaming. Original Xbox discs are prone to wear, so complete, undamaged copies — especially of the system's more niche or Japan-only titles — are less common than the console's overall sales figures might suggest.
Gamevaro tracks Steel Battalion: Line of Contact for Xbox with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Steel Battalion: Line of Contact to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This XBOX release dates back to 2005.
