Gundam Battle Royale

About

Gundam Battle Royale is a tactical action game for PlayStation Portable that puts you in control of iconic mechs from the Universal Century timeline. You battle in arena-style matches using mobile suits and armors from series like Zeta Gundam. The single player mode offers structured challenges while multiplayer lets you test strategies against others. Combat focuses on positioning weapon loadouts and exploiting enemy weaknesses with a turn based feel mixed with real time urgency. The game leans heavily on its deep roster of licensed mechs which fans of the franchise will recognize. Released in 2006 it built on the mechanics of its predecessor while adding new customization options. Though limited to Japanese and Korean markets its tactical focus and mech variety earned it a dedicated following among Gundam enthusiasts. A direct sequel arrived the next year expanding on these foundations.
