Extending the Original Generations saga, this entry adds scenarios, units and challenges to an already hearty turn-based formula. Optimising your robots, aiming for the branches and unlocking everything invites a replay. That generosity, inherent to the series, sustains a longevity strategists cultivate.

Super Robot Taisen OG Gaiden, a side story extending the franchise's original universe without resorting to outside licenses, distributed in Japan and Korea. Its interest lies in its place in the continuity of the Original Generations and fans' attachment to this in-house universe rather than scarcity. A niche piece for SRW fans following the OG line.
Is Super Robot Taisen OG Gaiden still worth playing in 2026?
A tactical RPG from Banpresto, Super Robot Taisen OG Gaiden extends the narrative arc devoted to the saga's original characters and robots, with a new scenario following Original Generations. The continuity of the in house universe, the heightened attack animations and a refined combat system win over the faithful. The Japanese text and the reliance on knowing the previous entries close off access. An excellent tactical RPG for fans of the Japanese genre and followers invested in the original Super Robot Taisen chronology.
