Gundam Battle Assault 2 is a 2D fighting game developed by Natsume and released for the PlayStation in 2002. It brings together massive Mobile Suits from multiple timelinesโincluding Mobile Suit Gundam, Gundam Wing, and G Gundamโand pitches them against each other in heavy, mechanical 1v1 combat. Unlike standard fast-paced fighters, the game emphasises the weight and scale of the mechs through deliberate movement, armour mechanics, and overheating thrusters.
How to Play
The objective is to deplete your opponent’s armor and health bars before they destroy you. In the browser emulator, use the D-pad (Arrow keys) to move, jump, and crouch. The primary attack buttonsโCross (X), Circle (Z), Square (S), and Triangle (A)โare used for a mix of melee strikes, ranged weapons, and blocking. Start (Enter) pauses the action, while the shoulder buttons (Q, W, E, R) manage your thrusters for dashing and dodging.
Tips
- Watch your Thruster Gauge: Using boost movement and evasive dashes drains your thrusters. If the gauge overheats, your Mobile Suit will be temporarily immobilized and vulnerable.
- Manage your Ammo: Ranged weapons like vulcan guns and beam rifles are powerful but have limited ammunition. Don’t waste shots when the enemy is blocking or out of range.
- Mega Specials: Every mech has a devastating Mega Special attack. Wait for an opening, such as when your opponent is recovering from a heavy swing, before triggering it.
