A special version of Another Century's Episode 2 adding original vocal themes. Game content is identical to the standard version. Interesting for fans wanting the complete soundtrack but offers no significant additional gameplay.

Collector interest
A giant-robot action game by Banpresto and From Software, gathering mechas from multiple animation series in free, brisk piloting, exclusive to Japan. A Special Vocal Version variant adds sung theme songs, a collectible spin prized by fans. Its interest lies in this gathering of licenses and its local run rather than scarcity, in a niche loyal to mecha.
Is Another Century's Episode 2 - Special Vocal Version still worth playing in 2026?
Released in 2005 on PS2 in Japan, From Software's project offers a mecha action that gathers anime series from a whole era, from Mobile Suit Gundam to Macross. The piloting feel, the pilot and mecha combinations and the anime style staging install a real fervour. The Special Vocal Version adds original sung themes for the heroes. The 3D modelling and some cameras have aged. Recommended today for Japanese mecha devotees, for pre Souls From Software fans and for PS2 collectors curious about ambitious Japanese imports never localised in the West on Sony's second home console hardware globally.
