Megatudo 2096 is a futuristic 3D arena fighting game released exclusively in Japan for the PlayStation in 1996. Developed by General Support and published by Banpresto, it puts you in the cockpit of giant robots known as Maneuver Wears for intense one-on-one battles.
The objective is to deplete your opponent’s health using a combination of melee and projectile attacks. A unique element of the gameplay is its linear dash mechanic, which allows you to strafe rapidly around the arena using rocket-powered movement. The PlayStation controller’s face buttons handle attacks, blocking, and manual weapon switching, while the L and R shoulder buttons control your mech’s lateral movement.
Tips:
- Mastering the linear dash is essential for evading enemy projectiles and closing the distance for melee strikes.
- Pay close attention to your equipped weapon, as you must manually switch between projectile and melee modes during combat to adapt to your opponent’s positioning.
