Assault Suits Valken 2

About

Assault Suits Valken 2 is a turn-based strategy game set in a near-future war over lunar military bases. You command mechs called AS 117s in grid-based battles where positioning and weapon loadouts matter more than reflexes. The story follows a conflict between two superpowers scrambling to control space resources while tactical beam guns orbit above. Each mission blends base building with squad management as you deploy units across varied terrain. The PlayStation version adds refined controls and updated visuals compared to its 1999 original. This sequel only ever saw a Japanese release and remains a niche title among strategy fans. Its mix of mech customization and thoughtful combat mechanics earned a cult following despite limited exposure. With over 150 missions and replay value from randomized maps, it holds up as a forgotten gem in the strategy genre. Fewer than 5000 copies are estimated to have circulated globally due to its region lock.

Storyline

2050. Fossil fuels such as oil is being depleted, and a disturbing atmosphere hangs over the world. Under such circumstances, the European Asia Commonwealth and the Pacific Rim United States, the two super powers of the world, rushed into the lunar military base development. Tactical beam guns have been positioned on the moon, in order to answer to any attack on the colonies. With the many disputes over mining resources, weapon placement and space colonies taking place, heroes of the Pacific Rim United States man their AS 117 Assault Suits and take to the battle ground to settle this war once and for all.
