Is Gundam Battle Assault still worth playing in 2026?
A fighting game from the Gundam universe, Battle Assault pits giant mechs in 2D side view duels, blending ranged fire and close combat. The fidelity to the mobile suits, the destructible arenas and the snappy pace offer an original versus for fans of the licence. The limited roster and an imperfect balance cap the depth. An accessible mech fighting game to recommend for fans of Gundam and atypical 2D versus on PlayStation.
