October 28, 2015– The thrilling conclusion to the trilogy is coming! Independent game publisher Fruitbat Factory is proud to announce the third part of Yakiniku Banzai!’s critically acclaimed War of the Human Tanks trilogy, War of the Human Tanks – Limited Operations is coming to Steam and other distributors this winter.
Fifty years since Human Tanks were first developed…
The land of Japon has been split in two and thrown into war by two nations, the Empire of Japon and the Kingdom of Japon, who use biological weapons known as “?Human Tanks” to fight their war. But now the war between these two has turned into a proxy war between the Human Tanks themselves.
Our hero, Yatarou Shirahase, acting as an officer in the Imperial army, is dispatched on a mission to subjugate the Human Tanks. He must now battle an enemy of the same make as his own beloved company of Human Tanks.
Key features:
- Over 50 missions with strategic, semi real-time battles
- Countless cute Human Tanks to battle with and against
- Replay missions at any time to improve your rank
- English localisation will feature hand-drawn battle backgrounds and an improved user interface

To Fruitbat Factory
I have been a fan of the series “War of the human tanks” ever since the first game was released in English.
I have since then been looking forward to the next games in the series, I understand that you have all been very busy recently working on games like “red eyes is for anguish” and I appreciate that.
However ever since you posted this update “War of the Human Tanks – Limited Operations Commencing on Steam!” I have been following the game thoroughly. This has led me to notice that you said the game would be available during winter, that was a few months ago. Now all that the steam website says is that the game will be released “soon”.
Again I appreciate your hard work and I understand that translating games/polishing games is very hard. I just hoped for some kind of progress update other than “soon”.
Please understand that I am only saying this because I love your work so much and I wish to see more of it. I am only concerned that the meaning of the word “soon” has been extended beyond what most people understand the word to mean. I humbly hope for some kind of update but I understand that you are probably trying your best and I wish you the best of luck with your future endeavours .
Sincerely, a concerned yet still hopeful fan.
