List of Super Robot Wars video games

(Redirected from 2nd Super Robot Wars Alpha)

This list provides an index of video game titles in Banpresto's Super Robot Wars franchise, known as Super Robot Taisen in Japan. Most of the games in the series are tactical role-playing games, but several games representing other genres were also released. List is divided by video game genre and ordered by initial release date. Only the original games, Neo Super Robot Wars and Super Robot Wars Compact, had final bosses that were not directly created by Banpresto.

It is one of the only independent games in the series to feature a multiplayer mode; it was not done again until the release of Super Robot Wars XO.

The final boss of the game was the main villain from Great Mazinger vs. Getter Robo, Gilgilgan.
  • A remake of the title was released digitally for the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita in 2014. While the game utilizes high-definition sprites, battle animations are rendered using immobile robots in a manner similar to titles released prior to Super Robot Wars Alpha. Gameplay changes include 13 new stages, Spirit Commands for all units (though the hero is given access to exclusive commands), the addition of Mazinger Z's Boss Borot to the starting Mazinger team, and new units such as the Full Armor Gundam and Cybuster.
