North America / Europe

Wow, welcome to the action! The topless man, the bullet vest, the giant gun, this cover is all about selling Fortified Zone’s grit. Even the title is wrapped in barbed wire, for crying out loud! The art style is a little uncanny, but there’s no denying that it’s pretty badass.

Japan

The idea is the same in the Japanese design, but the art style swings for something a little more comic book-y. Our heroes are way more jacked here, and the encroaching armies in the background don’t seem to be quite as much of a threat — though he’s firing that giant gun nonetheless. Hey, at least the sky is pretty!

Thank you for voting! We’ll see you next week for another edition of Box Art Brawl!
