由Bandai Namco Entertainment開發，並於2017年首次推出的《超級機器人大戰 V》（Super Robot Wars V），是系列邁向「全新航路」的重要里程碑。作為系列首部正式推出繁體中文版並登陸多平台的原創單部作品，本作以「Voyage（航海）」為核心主題，並史詩般地引入Space Battleship Yamato 2199作為參戰主力，同時結合Mobile Suit Gundam、《勇者特急隊》（Brave Express Might Gaine）與Angels and Dragons Requiem等多元作品，為玩家呈現一場跨越星際與維度的救世篇章。

故事背景設定在三個平行地球：面臨外星勢力加米拉斯入侵的「新元號地球」、經歷過大規模戰爭的「西元地球」、以及充滿龍與魔法元素的「AD 世紀地球」。玩家將跟隨原創主角（叢雲總司或如月千歲）以及傳奇戰艦「大和號」，穿梭於這些崩壞世界之間。劇情核心圍繞著對地球復原的希望，各路英雄為守護人類未來，突破時空界限齊聚於「大和號」旗下。這段旅程不僅充滿熱血的機甲對決，更深刻探討犧牲、希望與文明存續的倫理抉擇。

在操作與系統設計上，導入彈性十足的「技能程式（Skill Program）」系統。利用戰鬥中獲得的「TacP（戰術點數）」自由培養各駕駛員，讓任何角色都能學習特殊技能，極大提升養成自由度。戰鬥中新增的「額外動作（Extra Action）」與「額外命令（Extra Order）」功能，允許玩家消耗ExC點數發動如「必定暴擊」、「無視體型」或「再行動」等指令，增強回合制戰略的動態性。

本作的戰鬥動畫表現被譽為系列巔峰，特別是針Space Battleship Yamato 2199與Shin Mazinger Z等作品的特寫鏡頭，完美還原原作動畫的張力。為照顧新玩家，遊戲優化了難度曲線，提供隨時調整的難易度選項與親切教學模式。無論Nintendo Switc手持模式或PC高解析度平台遊玩，流暢的轉場與節奏分明的戰鬥動畫都讓每一次擊毀敵機的過程充滿極致成就感。

在市場評價方面，獲得壓倒性好評，被視為「開啟機戰系列新黃金時代的傑作」。正面評價特別讚賞其「完整且緊湊的單部曲劇情」，解決長篇系列冗長的缺點，並透過跨作品角色互動與《大和號》劇情融合，展現系列改編腳本的典範。

雖然部分老玩家認為本作整體難度偏低，即使不刻意強化也能輕鬆破關，但這種「爽快感優先」的設計成功吸引新世代玩家。總結而言，《超級機器人大戰 V》憑藉優異的中文化品質、熱血機甲戰鬥演出以及魅力十足的原創主角群，確立其在現代戰略模擬遊戲中的經典地位。不僅是週年紀念作品，更是所有喜愛Mobile Suit Gundam與機器人動畫玩家不可錯過的夢幻盛宴。

Developed by Bandai Namco Entertainment and first released in 2017, Super Robot Wars V represents a milestone in the series’ journey toward a “new path.” As the first original single-entry work in the series officially released in Traditional Chinese and on multiple platforms, the game centers around the theme of “Voyage” and epicly features Space Battleship Yamato 2199 as a key participating force, alongside Mobile Suit Gundam, Brave Express Might Gaine, and Angels and Dragons Requiem, weaving a story that spans across galaxies and dimensions.

The narrative is set across three parallel Earths, each facing the threat of extinction: the “New Era Earth,” under invasion by the alien Gamilas; the “AD Earth,” ravaged by large-scale wars; and the “AD Century Earth,” a realm filled with dragons and magic. Players follow the original protagonists (Soushi Murakumo or Chitose Kisaragi) and the legendary battleship Yamato, traveling between these collapsing worlds. The central story revolves around hope for restoring Earth, as heroes from various worlds unite under the banner of the Yamato to protect humanity’s future. This journey combines intense mecha battles with deep explorations of sacrifice, hope, and the ethical dilemmas surrounding civilization’s survival.

In terms of gameplay, Super Robot Wars V introduces a highly flexible “Skill Program” system, allowing players to use battle-earned TacP (Tactical Points) to freely develop any pilot, teaching them unique skills and greatly enhancing customization. The newly added “Extra Action” and “Extra Order” mechanics enable mechs and the mothership to spend ExC points to execute powerful commands such as “Guaranteed Critical,” “Ignore Size,” or “Extra Turn,” adding dynamic depth to the turn-based strategy.

The game’s battle animations are regarded as some of the best in the series, with special attention given to scenes featuring Space Battleship Yamato 2199 and Shin Mazinger Z, perfectly capturing the intensity of the original animations. For newcomers, difficulty curves are optimized, with adjustable difficulty settings and an accessible tutorial mode. Whether played handheld on the Nintendo Switch or in high-resolution on PC, the smooth transitions and rhythmically paced battle animations provide an exceptional sense of accomplishment with each enemy defeated.

Super Robot Wars V received overwhelming critical acclaim, hailed as “a masterpiece that ushers in a new golden age for the SRW series.” Reviewers praised its “complete and tightly paced single-story campaign,” which solves the common issue of overly long narratives in previous multi-part series entries, while the cross-series character interactions and integration of the Yamato’s story are considered exemplary in adaptation.

Although some veteran players felt the game’s overall difficulty was relatively low, allowing for easy completion without heavy enhancement, this “fun-first” approach successfully attracted a new generation of players. In summary, Super Robot Wars V combines excellent Traditional Chinese localization, thrilling mecha combat, and a compelling original cast to establish itself as a classic in modern strategy simulation games. It is not only a commemorative anniversary title but also a dream experience for fans of Mobile Suit Gundam and mecha animation alike.
