Mobile Suit Gundam: Encounters in Space

About

You pilot mechs in space and on planets, firing guns and launching missiles in a game split into short story segments. Each mission spans moments from a four year war between two factions, letting you control different suits in set piece battles. The single player mode focuses on quick scenarios rather than a long story, with objectives that mix shooting and maneuvering. Online play lets you fight others in arena style matches or team based combat. The game includes over 30 mobile suits from the Gundam universe, appealing to fans familiar with the series. It holds a 78% on Metacritic from 40 reviews, with critics noting the variety of gameplay modes but some calling the story sections too brief. Multiplayer remains the most played feature, offering deathmatch and capture the flag options. The PS2 version runs smoothly with detailed mechs, though later ports have sharper visuals.
