## Description
Continuing the story of the space battleship Yamato after _Saraba Uch ū Senkan
Yamato: Ai no Senshitachi_, _Uch ū Senkan Yamato: Iscandar e no Tsuioku_
adapts the third movie of the franchise, _The New Voyage_. When the holy
planet Iscandar becomes the target of the evil Dark Nebula Empire, Earth and
Gamilas have to put their enmity aside and work together to defend Iscandar.
The Yamato takes off for a new galactic odyssey, that will be a baptism of
fire for the rookie crew.
Developed by the same team as the two PlayStation games, _Uch ū Senkan Yamato:
Iscandar e no Tsuioku_ offers a very different gameplay. The semi-turn-based
tactical battles are no more, as the game is now a real-time strategy/action
game, where the player controls the Yamato and allied ships during 3D space
battles. While following the plot of the movie, the game also includes some
new twists, characters and adventures on the way to Iscandar.
Like previous games of the series, the game features character-design by
Keisuke Masunaga, based on the original characters created by Leiji Matsumoto.
The story is told both with animated 2D movies and fully-voiced in-games
cutscenes. The characters are rendered in cel-shading.
