Back in December, EGM revealed that R-Type Tactics was coming to America. Today, Atlus confirmed it by announcing they would be publishing the newly rechristened R-Type Command for the PSP on May 6.

R-Type reborn - The highly acclaimed franchise moves into the strategy genre with exciting tactical gameplay!
Control the Bydo forces - For the first time in the series, take command of the Bydo forces as they launch their assault on Earth!
Intense strategy gameplay - With nearly 100 different units at your disposal, it's up to you to choose the best fleet for battle. Upgrade your existing units or purchase new ones!
Head-to-head local multiplayer - With the PSP wireless communication feature, play against a friend in Wireless Ad Hoc mode for a one-on-one strategy battle!
Once again, the game is scheduled to ship on May 6. We'll have more soon.
