Super Robot Taisen MX condenses the formula on PS2. Targeted roster, retuned balance and accessible missions. A nice entry to Banpresto's mecha strategy branch.

Lining up mechs from a fresh selection of series unfolds a hearty turn-based campaign, accessible yet deep. Optimising your units, hunting the secret pilots and enjoying the spectacle revives every mission. That marriage of strategy and fan service sustains a longevity genre fans savour.
Complete: box, manual and disc/cart very clean. Lightly handled.

Is Super Robot Taisen MX still worth playing in 2026?
A tactical RPG from Banpresto, Super Robot Taisen MX gathers a cast of anime mechs in turn based grid battles, seeking a better balance between tactical depth and accessibility than other denser entries. The thrill of the crossover, the polished attack animations and a more measured difficulty win over fans. The Japanese text and the genre's particular pacing remain drawbacks. A good tactical RPG for fans of the Japanese genre and of animation robots after a more approachable entry.
