Exciting Gundam tales
Super Robot Wars V is an action and strategy game that is going to fulfill your childhood dreams of having your own Gundam to drive. Not only will it let you feel how it is like to drive a giant robot, but it will also give you the whole experience by letting you do actual missions and accomplish tasks that will help the story progress. Yes, it does follow a plot throughout the game and you would be surprised with how detailed and well-thought-out the plot is. Playing Super Robot Wars V is like getting cast for real in a Gundam-themed anime, making it the perfect game for the young ones and those who are young at heart.
Be the hero the galaxy needs
As usual, you are in it for some world-saving here in Super Robot Wars V. If you are familiar with Gundam-themed anime shows, you would be seeing familiar designs and elements in the game. No worries, though, if you have not watched any of those yet, because as mentioned above, the game has its own compelling storyline to keep you occupied. With that said, the plot begins with the introduction of several worlds and spacecraft, as well as characters who will join you on your adventure. The story will lead you to discover a plot to destroy the Earth, which will then be the reason why these different worlds and characters come together. It is not a surprise to know that you will wind up defending the Earth from invaders, but even with the cliche trope, the gameplay itself and the way the story unfolds is quite an experience. For those who have seen Gundam anime shows, seeing familiar faces in the game is a fun bonus.
Now, let us talk about how to actually play the game. Since Super Robots Wars V is heavily reliant on its storyline, expect a visual novel type of gameplay, especially during the first parts of the game. You will get to meet the characters first and have a conversation with them. There are dialogue boxes that will appear at the bottom of your screen as they talk to you. Eventually, after all the necessary introductions are made, you are given a taste of what playing in the field will be like. The game has a grid-like playing area where you can move around and explore. In between your missions, conversations between other characters can be heard in the background and some will even address you directly! It really is a combination of RPG, combat, and visual novels.
Plenty of things to enjoy
Super Robots Wars V will surely keep you from feeling bored with how many things you do while playing it. It is ideal for kids to discover and be interested in robots and science, while at the same time, it is admittedly nostalgic to play. The effects in the combat scenes are also incredible! They make you feel like you are part of the anime itself.
