Take a Trip Across Four Gundam Universes
Four Gundam eras come together in this latest offering from Bandai Namco. The SD Gundam G Generation Cross Rays game is the new title from the long-running tactical role-playing game series, SD Gundam G Generation. In this new entry, players can form a team of SD Gundams that they can deploy for battle. However, it will not only come from a single series of the hit anime franchise. Players can pick Gundam units from four titles. Relive the stories and collect mobile suits from different Gundam eras while experiencing strategic battles. This game is a treat to Mobile Suit Gundam’s avid fans.
Collect Them All
Mobile Suit Gundam is a very popular franchise—not just in Japan but also across the globe. The mecha anime got so popular that various Gundam games were created, with SD Gundam G Generation Cross Rays as its latest title. In this game, players will be able to relive the story from four different eras of the iconic franchise, namely Mobile Suit Gundam Wing, Mobile Suit Gundam Seed, Mobile Suit Gundam 00, and Mobile Suit Gundam Iron-Blooded Orphans. With this, fans—both new and old—will get to experience the storied lore of the franchise with unprecedented depth.
As with other Gundam games, SD Gundam G Generation Cross Rays will have you battle it out against enemies using Mobile Suits. And this is where the real fun begins. Since the game features four different eras, you will get to have more units and characters to collect, train, and battle alongside. In fact, there are more than 30 available units to choose from. And by defeating enemies in battles, you will have a chance to level up and groom them for more chances of winning.
Still Has the Gundam Touch
The SD Gundam G Generation Cross Rays game is anchored by the G Generation series, so expect the unique development, design, and capture mechanics that the franchise is known for. The whole SD or Super Deformed aspect is also a key part of how this mecha game is represented. To further improve your experience, the game will have strategically intense battles that feature high-definition 3D models, dynamic animations, and character cut-ins.
The game has various modes, including the story missions where you can play out the stages of all the anime titles included. However, don’t expect to experience the four eras intertwining because you can only play one story at a time—although, you can play any of the titles anytime. There will also be dispatch missions, which are time-based operations, that can let players acquire money, experience, and more. The dispatch mission is included in the first wave of DLC of the game.
For the Gundam Fans
If you are a fan of Gundam, then SD Gundam G Generation Cross Rays will appeal to you. The source material is a niche within the anime fandom, and the players will appreciate the added number of mobile suits and characters that they can play with. And of course, with it incorporating four eras of the franchise, this game will take you to a nostalgic trip across the Gundam universe.
