Assault Suits Valken is set in a futuristic world where two opposing factions, the Union and the Federation, are at war for control of Earth’s dwindling fossil fuels. Jake Brain and his Union platoon must pilot their fortified mecha through a range of challenging run-and-gun missions to accomplish their mission of destroying the Federation government’s most powerful weapon – Bildvorg.
