SD Gundam G Generation Cross Rays review

SD Gundam G Generation Cross Rays ranks second because it pairs the best Steam reception of any game here with a lower price. It is a tactical RPG: you form your own team of SD-style mobile suits and pilots and fight turn-based battles drawn from four eras, Mobile Suit Gundam Wing, SEED, 00 and Iron-Blooded Orphans, plus side stories such as SEED Astray and Endless Waltz. The series' Development, Design and Capture systems let you grow and swap units as you go, and battles play out in 3D with character cut-ins. English Steam reviews are 88% positive across 2,002 reviews, the highest share on this list, and the base game costs $39.99. It also runs on very old hardware, with a 2 GB RAM minimum. The limits are clear: it is single-player only, it is turn-based rather than action, and it covers only the four listed eras, so fans of the original Universal Century timeline should look at G Generation Eternal.
