Masōkishin II: Revelation of Evil God is newest RPG in 19-year-old mecha franchise

This week's issue of Enterbrain's Famitsu magazine revealed a new Super Robot Wars game for the PSP titled Masōkishin II: Revelation of Evil God. A release date and game details for the 19-year-old franchise's upcoming title have not yet been officially confirmed. The game features the return of several franchise mainstays such as Cybuster, the robotic mecha that starred in its own anime.

The first Super Robot Wars role-playing game debuted for the Game Boy handheld game system in 1991, and the series' most recent title Super Robot Wars OG Saga Masōkishin The Lord of Elemental, shipped in Japan in May. The franchise's games developed by Banpresto and Winkysoft have been released on various Nintendo, Sony, Microsoft, and other game platforms.

The Super Robot Wars games have inspired various anime including Cybuster in 1999, Super Robot Wars Original Generation - The Animation in 2005, and Super Robot Wars OG: Divine Wars in 2006. Animator Satoshi Kubo revealed a new Super Robot Wars project in July.
