Product Information

Pitch your favorite mobile suit against other Gundams and battle it out with other pilots in Gundam: Battle Assault 2, one of several Gundam games made for PlayStation. With a wide range of mobile suits and characters available from the Gundam metaverse, you’ll have the chance to pilot a variety of Gundams, including ones out of Mobile Fighter G Gundam, Gundam Wing: Endless Waltz, and the Gundam Wing TV series. Gundam: Battle Assault 2 is a sequel for the original Gundam: Battle Assault. Developed in conjunction by Bandai and Natsume and published by Bandai, the game was released in 2002 and introduced several new features, along with a new roster of fighters. The sequel builds on the original gameplay mechanics from Gundam: Battle Assault and delivers better visuals, story modes, and moves for an experience that is improved overall. In Gundam: Battle Assault 2’s Street Mode, you play as one of eight characters, each with their own storylines based loosely on the events of the One Year War, the Endless Waltz OVA, and the 13th Gundam Fight. This arcade-style story mode comes with voiced cutscenes, giving the game a more narrative feel. Your primary objective is still to battle other Gundams, though, duking it out with other mobile suit pilots in an all-out battle to be the best. The controls are fairly easy to understand with single-button attacks being used alongside special moves. Spacing and timing is remarkably important in both Gundam: Battle Assault games. Because of the closed confines of the arena, you’ll need to make use of what space you have to avoid damage and to maximize your own attacks, which means paying attention to where your opponent in all of your games. Each of the Gundams is equipped with its own range of special attacks, and if used correctly, they can deal devastating amounts of damage to the enemy. The wide range of mobile suits available in the Gundam: Battle Assault games means that all Gundam fans can get into them, regardless of their skill level or familiarity with fighting games in general. Certain Gundams require more patience and time to figure out, but several mobile suits, such as the RX-78-2 Gundam, combine easier movesets and more flexibility in order to be friendlier for beginners. Whether you’re playing as Burning Gundam as you search for your brother or as Gundam Wing out to destroy Treize Khushrenada, you’ll find plenty of action waiting for you in the star-filled arenas of Gundam: Battle Assault 2. Fans of the various Gundam series or other Gundam games will likely find several of their favorite mobile suits in the lineup. These include Deathscythe H, Epyon, and Tallgeese III from Gundam Wing, Zeta Gundam from Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam, Zaku II from Mobile Suit Gundam, and Maxter from Mobile Fighter G Gundam, among many others.
