Story
Band of Heroes is set 2 years after the first Tech Romancer. An organization called New Eden has begun a complete seige on Earth, and are hellbent on taking over, even if it spells their death. So, many of the returning characters from the last game band together to create a team capable of defeating New Eden and saving humanity.

Gameplay
Gameplay is similar to the original Tech Romancer, but like Capcom Vs SNK, you can have up to 4 characters on your team that you can switch between during the fight.

You also have another mode, called Project Hex, which follows the same plot as arcade, just extended. The gameplay in this mode is similar to old school shooters, mixed with story elements more common in modern shooters. And, this mode can be played in 1st person and 3rd person.

Both modes can be played in multiplayer locally for up to 4 players, up to 18 players in an online tournament, and up to 64 players in Project Hex.
