■ Redone SD designs! Playable Characters 
Six unique heroes, old and new, form the lineup. Each has their own special abilities, and can chain together their own combos!


▲ Three of the six playable heroes.


 [Freedom Gundam!]
Can change into winged, high-speed, flying HiMAT mode. Its Full Burst, which fires all its weapons, is truly fearsome. Its battle BGM is "Gundam Shutsugeki".

 [Gundam]
Carrying a beam rifle, as well as a beam saber for close combat, the Gundam can also use non-beam weapons like its hammer and bazooka for a variety of attacks. Its battle BGM is "Tobe! Gundam".

 [Kamen Rider DCD]
The rider known as the Destroyer of Worlds. Using the energy of the Rider Gate to transform into other Kamen Riders, he can unleash a wide range of special attacks. His battle BGM is "Decade"

 [Kamen Rider 1]
Kamen Ridfer battles the evil conspiracy Shocker. Also known as "#1 with the moves", his powerful Rider Kick is stunning. His battle BGM is "Kamen Rider Tojo".

 [Ultraman Moebius]
A space patrolman from the Land of Light. Originally a weak fighter, the tutelage of the other Ultra Senshi has improved his combat capabilities. His battle BGM is "Ultraman Moebius".

 [Ultraman]
The second Ultra brother from the nebula M78. His specium rays and cutting halos are the best at stopping kaiju. His battle BGM is "Ultraman no Uta".


▲ Characters mix series between stages!


■ Use the right characters to take the fight to the enemy! CompatiChange
With CompatiChange, simply tap L or R to swap heroes. Each type of character has their own adjustment to damage for certain enemies.
Using CompatiChange well is the tactical key!



▲ Ultraman Moebius is great at taking down kaijin, less so at mobile suits. Be careful of compatibility before you CompatiChange!

There are also special chan attacks which can be used by expending SP. Once you activate a combo, you can switch characters with an Attack Change and keep it going, or roll with a blow that would knock you down and come up fighting!


■ Take on solo missions! "Personal Area"
Along with three-character Battle Areas, there are Personal Areas where each character has his own route!
In Personal Areas players choose a single character and participate in missions just for him.
Of course, as a solo experience, CompatiChange is unavailable.



▲ Finish stages to progress to Personal Areas. Each route requires different methods to advance, like speeding a bike through a hail of fire (left), escorting the Eternal to dock (right), or more!


■ A variety of support characters help out! "Assist Attack"
Advancing through stages earns you new friends and Assist Attacks! You can set up to four prestage, and give yourself attack, evasion, and other stat boosts to match your character!



▲ Assist attack icons appear on the borders of the screen.

▲ Each series gets 12 assists, for a total of 36.


■ Battle to your favorite music! 
The game lets you select music, and changes the BGM in stages to suit the situation. Or enjoy your own custom soundtracks!



■ Amazing bonuses! You have to hear the theme!
"Win the Battle" is sung by Rica Matsumoto, Tsuyoshi Matsubara, and Tomohisa Kawazoe! A theme with famous Gundam, Ultraman, and Kamen Rider vocalists!
