If Super Robot Wars 30 looks like it would be your cup of tea, check out our video review below, as well as our full written review of the game, where we said:
“Super Robot Wars 30 is a wonderful place to start in this series due to its ease of accessibility and commendable encyclopedia of terms and characters. It’s an approachable SRPG no matter your skill level but shows age in its menu design and limited tutorials. Still, it managed to rope me in for hours of enjoyment as I survived off this mecha feast for days.”
