Bandai Namco Entertainment announced a remaster of the 2011 PSP title Super Robot Wars Z2 Hakai-hen during a 35th anniversary stream. The remaster will feature high-resolution battle animations, adjusted UI, and multi-language support. The release window was not specified, with the stream indicating it may not arrive within the current fiscal year.
The Super Robot Wars 35th anniversary stream brought the series' first remaster, a project that previously seemed out of reach. Bandai Namco explained that past remasters were difficult due to asset-related issues, but persistent fan requests for older titles helped clear the way.
The original Hakai-hen was well received at launch, and the Z2 series also ranked highly in a recent product survey. The choice of this particular game came down to its PSP origins, which limit how players can access it today. The remaster will upgrade battle animations to higher resolution and adjust the UI, and it will add multi-language support where the original was Japanese only.
No release window was given. The stream suggested a launch within the current fiscal year would be difficult.
