Custom Mech Wars will have an extensive free-form robot creation system, and D3 Publisher showed how it will work at Tokyo Game Show 2023. The game’s producer Yosuke Uchida was present at D3 Publisher’s livestream to explain the Omega Customization system with live gameplay footage.
In Custom Mech Wars, a leg part will constitute the minimum requirement to construct a robot. While players can immediately launch with such a robot, its only attack will be a tackle with recoil damage.
Other parts will then be available to place on any available hardpoints and then repositioned or rotated. While players can resize the accessories, the key body parts will have fixed sizes. The three available sizes — S, M, and L — will determine whether the robot will have an emphasis on mobility or durability.
D3 Publisher will also release additional content based on its other IPs as optional DLC. The EDF Collab Edition will let players access missions to unlock units from the Earth Defense Force series, such as Barga, Balam, and Nix. The Ultimate Edition will further add panels of heroines from Samurai Maiden, Bullet Girls, Omega Labyrinth, and Dream Club.
Custom Mech Wars will be available worldwide on PlayStation 5 and PC via Steam on December 14, 2023.
