由Bandai Namco Entertainment開發並於2018年推出的《超級機器人大戰 X》，是繼《超級機器人大戰 V》之後，以「單發完結」架構推出的第二部系列大作。「X」代表「X-cross（交錯）」，舞台設定於神秘異世界「艾爾·華司」，並首度引入充滿奇幻色彩的《魔神英雄傳》與《海底兩萬哩》，同時結合經典作品《聖戰士丹拜因》與《機動戰士鋼彈》系列，打造出兼具魔法與科技的異世界機器人大戰，帶給玩家全新的冒險體驗。

故事背景設於魔法與靈力支配的艾爾·華司世界。原創主角（伊歐利或安瑪莉）是一名正在修行的「術士」，因緣際會下與具自我意識的魔法書「希望」一同踏上旅程。在這個世界中，原本來自不同時空的英雄被神秘力量召喚而至。核心劇情圍繞守護艾爾·華司的和平，並揭開主角隱藏的記憶之謎。玩家將陪伴救世主戰部渡攀登創界山，並與鋼彈駕駛員共同對抗來自異次元的威脅。這種將「劍與魔法」奇幻元素與鋼鐵機器人融合的劇本，為系列注入如童話般的瑰麗與熱血感。

在操作與系統設計上，延續前作的核心框架，並強化「教條系統」。操作原創戰艦或主角機透過魔法書發動特殊指令，這些指令不消耗精神點數，卻能提供如「大幅提升暴擊率」、「回復能量」或「降低敵方防禦」等增益效果，增加戰術靈活度。此外，「技能路線」系統讓玩家利用戰術點數（TacP）解鎖強化零件與駕駛員技能，打造高度個人化的精銳部隊。

戰鬥動畫表現亦獲高度評價，尤其是《魔神英雄傳》與《魔神 Z》的重製演出，龍神丸的「登龍劍」與大魔神的新絕招呈現華麗特效與動態感。Switch版本優化了過場加載與自動存檔功能，方便玩家在碎片時間完成遭遇戰。操作手感紮實、介面直觀，無論老玩家追求極致傷害加總，或新玩家專注劇情閱讀，都能在流暢節奏中獲得滿足感。

在市場上獲得穩定正面口碑，被譽為「最具浪漫奇幻色彩的機戰作品」。正面評價肯定其「完美還原《魔神英雄傳》」與「風格獨特的世界觀」，打破過往機戰過於沉重的軍事政治氛圍，提供更純粹的冒險樂趣。中文化品質穩定，也讓華語玩家能無障礙體驗異世界交織的動人劇情。

雖然部分評論指出系統與前作《V》相似，部分地圖略顯單調，但跨作品角色互動及熱血配樂表現成功抵消負面觀感。總結而言，本作是一部充滿想像力的集大成之作，成功將「魔法」與「鋼鐵」融合，為喜愛超級機器人與奇幻冒險的玩家提供如夢似幻且熱血沸騰的經典旅程。

Developed by Bandai Namco Entertainment and released in 2018, Super Robot Wars X is the second major single-entry installment following Super Robot Wars V. The “X” in its title represents “X-cross,” boldly setting the stage in a mysterious alternate world called “El-Wars.” For the first time in the series, it introduces the fantasy-rich worlds of Mashin Eiyuden Wataru and 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, while also incorporating classics such as Aura Battler Dunbine and Mobile Suit Gundam. The result is a mecha war that fuses magic with technology, immersing players in a fantastical interdimensional adventure.

The story takes place in El-Wars, a world dominated by magic and spiritual energy. The original protagonist (Iori or Anmari) is a practicing sorcerer who embarks on a journey alongside a sentient magic book named “Hope.” Heroes from different timelines and worlds are mysteriously summoned to this realm, and the plot revolves around protecting El-Wars’ peace while uncovering the hidden memories of the protagonist. Players accompany the savior Wataru Tsurugi as they ascend Mount Genesis, while collaborating with Gundam pilots to combat threats from another dimension. By blending the fantastical elements of swords and magic with the iconic steel mecha of the Gundam series, the game injects a fairy-tale-like grandeur and invigorating excitement into the franchise.

In terms of gameplay, Super Robot Wars X continues the well-received framework of its predecessor while enhancing strategic depth through the “Dogma System.” Players can command original ships or protagonist mechs to execute special Dogma commands via their spellbooks. These commands do not consume SP but provide powerful boosts such as significantly increased critical rates, energy restoration, or lowering enemy defenses, adding new layers of tactical flexibility. The “Skill Route” system allows players to use TacP (Tactical Points) to unlock upgrades and pilot skills, enabling the creation of highly personalized, elite teams.

Battle animations have been widely praised, especially the remastered sequences for Mashin Eiyuden Wataru and Mazinger Z. Moves such as Ryujinmaru’s “Rising Dragon Sword” and Daimajin’s new ultimate attacks are presented with stunning effects and dynamic action. The Nintendo Switch version optimizes loading times and features auto-save functionality, making it easy to play short sessions during commutes. Controls are solid, and the intuitive interface satisfies both veteran players seeking maximum damage combos and newcomers enjoying the story, all within a smooth gameplay rhythm.

Super Robot Wars X received stable and positive market reception, praised as “the most romantically fantastical entry in the SRW series.” Critics highlighted its faithful recreation of Mashin Eiyuden Wataru and the unique world-building, noting that it breaks away from the series’ traditionally heavy military-political tone to deliver a more pure sense of adventure. The high-quality Traditional Chinese localization ensures that players in Chinese-speaking regions can fully enjoy the interwoven world and compelling dialogue.

While some reviewers noted that the system shares similarities with Super Robot Wars V and that some maps feel slightly repetitive, the engaging cross-series character interactions and energetic musical performances outweigh these minor drawbacks. In summary, Super Robot Wars X is a masterful work of imagination, successfully blending the seemingly contrasting elements of magic and steel, and providing fans of super robots and fantasy adventures with a dreamlike, adrenaline-filled classic journey.
