Anime strategy RPG Super Robot Wars 30 is mech-ing waves on Steam

Super Robot Wars was providing massive multimedia crossover battles before it stopped being cool, and its particular combination of beloved mechs and strategy RPG tactics has been legendary among anime fans for years. The series' licensing nightmare has made releases outside of Japan rare, but with Super Robot Wars 30, English-speaking fans are finally getting the full experience in an official, worldwide release.


And judging by the Steam player counts, those fans are eating it up. Super Robot Wars 30 reached a peak concurrent player count of 17,005 on day one, as SteamDB shows. That makes it the 62nd-biggest game on Steam today - not a mind-blowing number, but very impressive for a niche series making a very rare appearance outside of Japan.


Super Robot Wars 30 features characters and mechs from numerous anime series, including Code Geass, Mazinger, SSSS.Gridman, and several Mobile Suit Gundam eras. Previously, the only Super Robot Wars games to be released in the West were bits of the Original Generation subseries, which focus on original characters rather than licensed crossovers.

Mobile Suit Gundam Char's Counterattack Beltorchika's Children
Super Electromagnetic Machine Voltes V
Sakura Wars Series
Super Robot Wars OG Series (RyuKoOh/KoRyuOh)

Here's a detailed introduction to each unit.

Mobile Suit Gundam Char's Counterattack Beltorchika's Children (Units only)
"Hi-Nu Gundam"

A Newtype Mobile Suit developed at Anaheim Electronics Co. It packs some heavy firepower, including a high-output Hyper Mega Bazooka Launcher capable of destroying warships in a single shot, and Fin Funnels capable of recharging in the unit's backpack funnel pod.


Super Electromagnetic Machine Voltes V (Units and pilots)
"Voltes V"

A combining super robot developed by Lah Gohl of the planet Boazan, AKA Dr. Kentaro Goh, along with his wife Dr. Mitsuyo Goh, and Dr. Hamaguchi. It was built to fight against the planet Boazan's pending invasion of Earth, and it operates on super electromagnetic physics. It has five combining component machines: the Volt Cruiser, Volt Bomber, Volt Panzer, Volt Frigate, and Volt Lander. The key phrase to initiate the combination sequence is "Let's volt in." In this sequence, the five Volt Machines gather up in a V formation (called "V together") before combining together. Its main pilot is Kenichi Goh, the eldest of Kentaro and Mitsuyo's sons. It has a wide array of special moves, including the Heaven Sword, which forms a super electromagnetic field and severs a target's intermolecular coupling (Heaven Sword V-Slash). It can also swing the Heaven Sword in other patterns besides a V, including a straight horizontal slash. It gets a number of upgrades to fight the Boazan Empire's forces, including an Ultra Magcon, a Super Electromagnetic Ball generated via electromagnetic compressor, and even a warp device in the last episode.


Sakura Wars Series (Units and pilots)
"Type-2 Kobu Sakura Type"

A spiricle armor employed by the Imperial Combat Revue. This one is Sakura Shinguji's personal model. It runs on a spiricle drive that amplifies latent human spirit power. This is an upgraded model tailored more to the individual pilot than prior models, based on usage data gathered from the Paris Combat Revue's Kobu F and Kobu F2 models. Sakura's unit is colored pink as per tradition for her, and it comes equipped with a katana and lower-body armor patterned after hakama.


"Type-2 Kobu Ogami Type"
A spiricle armor employed by the Imperial Combat Revue. This one is Ichiro Ogami's personal model. It runs on a spiricle drive that amplifies latent human spirit power. This is an upgraded model tailored more to the individual pilot than prior models, based on usage data gathered from the Paris Combat Revue's Kobu F and Kobu F2 models. Ogami's unit is colored white as per tradition for him, and it comes
equipped with two long katanas.


"Kobu F2 Erica Type"
A spiricle armor employed by the Paris Combat Revue. This one is Erica Fontaine's personal model. It was developed as a joint project between the mechanic crews of both the Paris Combat Revue and Imperial Combat Revue. It boasts greater mobility and firepower than its base model, the Kobu F, and its weaponry is also more heavily tailored to the individual pilot. Erica's unit is colored red, and it comes equipped with the Gatling Arm Zachariel. It also has white wings on its back which enable flight in short bursts.

"STAR V (Rodeo STAR)"

A spiricle armor employed by the New York Combat Revue. This one is Gemini Sunrise's personal model. Its most distinguishing feature is a transformation mechanism that enables it to transform into a flight mode, making it capable of a versatile urban defense even in a city as full of high places as New York. Its on-board transformation mechanism gives it even greater output than what the Kobu series is capable of. Gemini's unit has an orange color scheme, and it comes equipped with a Gunbarrel Sword.


"STAR V (Fujiyama STAR)"
A spiricle armor employed by the New York Combat Revue. This one is Shinjiro Taiga's personal model. Its most distinguishing feature is a transformation mechanism that enables it to transform into a flight mode, making it capable of a versatile urban defense even in a city as full of high places as New York. Its on-board transformation mechanism gives it even greater output than what the Kobu series is capable of. Taiga's unit has a white color scheme, and it utilizes dual Swords, a long katana and a short one.


Super Robot Wars OG Series (Units and pilots)
"RyuKoOh"

A Chokijin formed by RyuOhKi (the "Dragon King Machine") combined on top of KoOhKi (the "Tiger King Machine"); translated, the name means "Dragon-Tiger King". It is a cybernetic weapon created by an ancient civilization to battle various supernatural entities (often identified as "devils" and "gods of destruction" today). Its autonomous thought circuits are advanced enough that it can be considered, in its way, sapient. While RyuKoOh's personality is ordinarily calm and rational, hitting the "Gekirin" armor plate under its throat will drive it into a rage, vastly amplifying its attack power. It is capable of operating independently, but without specifically chosen telekinetic pilots seated in its components, the Wu Xing Vessel that serves as its engine cannot fully activate, badly limiting the Vessel's output and RyuKoOh's overall performance. In contrast to its alternate form, KoRyuOh, RyuKoOh specializes in aerial and underwater combat using magical attacks with tremendous destructive power. RyuKoOh itself can operate indefinitely, but it must fuel its attacks with fushui (water mixed with the ashes of burnt hufu talismans). Its armor is made of spell-reinforced hufu talismans, but it is by no means made of paper.


"KoRyuOh"
A Chokijin formed by KoOhKi combined on top of RyuOhKi; translated, its name means "Tiger-Dragon King". Its personality is much more aggressive than RyuKoOh, and it specializes in close range and melee combat using a variety of weaponry. While it cannot fly, its ground speed is unparalleled, and it can make duplicates of itself using its Double Technique.


That's all the information about DLC 1.
