Super Robot Wars V is a single-player tactical RPG that brings 26 robot animation series into one original crossover story. Official listings cover PlayStation 4, PC via Steam, and Nintendo Switch, but language support and confirmed bonus content vary by storefront listing and region.
What is Super Robot Wars V?
Super Robot Wars V is a turn-based strategy RPG built around tactical battles and a crossover narrative, rather than an adaptation of a single anime. Steam describes it as a 25th-anniversary commemorative title featuring an original story that combines 26 robot animation series. That count comes from the game’s product description; it does not mean each series has equal story weight. Steam’s product listing and the Singapore PlayStation Store listing both describe the 26-series crossover.
What series and story elements does it bring together?
The Singapore PlayStation Store describes the game as a standalone story crossing over 26 mecha anime series. Among the featured entries it names are:
- Cross Ange: Rondo of Angels and Dragons
- Brave Express Mightgaine
- True Mazinger ZERO vs Great General of Darkness
- Mobile Suit Gundam: Hathaway’s Flash
- Mobile Suit Crossbone Gundam: Skull Heart
- Space Battleship Yamato 2199
This is a selection from that storefront’s examples, not a complete roster. The original crossover premise is the central appeal: characters and machines from multiple properties meet within one game-specific story.

What language and bonus content should you check?
Language support depends on the listing
Nintendo Southeast Asia lists English, Korean, Traditional Chinese, and Japanese for its Switch version. The Singapore PlayStation Store identifies an English PS4 version. Those details establish what the cited regional listings say, not that every regional copy or storefront offers the same languages. Confirm the language information on the store page for your market before purchasing.
The 20 bonus scenarios are confirmed for Steam and the cited Switch listing
Steam and Nintendo Southeast Asia both say their versions include all 20 bonus scenarios from the previous version of Super Robot Wars V. The cited PS4 listing does not establish whether those scenarios are included, so do not assume the same bonus-content terms apply to every platform or regional edition.

What should Switch players know about play modes?

Is there an official soundtrack?
Bandai Namco Music Live’s catalog includes a listing for the Super Robot Wars V Original Soundtrack for PS4/PS Vita. The catalog entry confirms a soundtrack listing, but does not establish present-day stock or format availability. Bandai Namco Music Live catalog.

Where should a newcomer start?
Super Robot Wars V is presented as a standalone crossover story, so it is a reasonable entry point for someone interested in this particular cast and premise. The listings establish that framing, but do not make a broader claim about the best starting point for the entire Super Robot Wars series.
