Gunparade March[b] is a 2000 tactical role-playing video game developed by Alfa System and published by Sony Computer Entertainment for the PlayStation.

In 1945, World War II was abruptly ended when an alien race appeared on Earth and began to slaughter the human population.

Earth forces now use advanced mecha called Humanoid Walking Tanks (HWTs) to combat the invaders, but throughout the ordeal, far too many pilots have been killed in action.

Gunparade March follows the lives of the 5121st Platoon, which consists mainly of drafted high school students and their struggle to defeat the Phantom Beasts and at the same time, lead a normal social life.
