So, I’ve dived headfirst into Megaton Musashi W: Wired by LEVEL5 Inc. The RPG wraps you in mecha battles and Earth’s counteroffensive against aliens. User reviews suggest a mixed bag—with praise but also criticism.
Yes, the one thing that came up quite a bit is the deep level of customization. Some love it for making their mechs uniquely powerful. There’s a lot of satisfaction in collecting parts and powering them up, and even more fulfilling when the level of customization extends to weapons and power-up materials. That’s a plus point for the game mechanics.
Can we talk about these collab mechs, though? The fact that the developers even tossed in legendary super robots like Mazinger Z, Getter Robo, and others just amps up the excitement for me. Exploring this game is like a treasure hunt—there’s always something awesome around every corner.

The combat speed and animations are definitely noteworthy, too. They’re flashy and a fantastic visual reward for strategic planning and quick execution.
Agreed. But on the gameplay mechanics side, I can see how mastering different mechs, upgrading consistently and strategizing in battles could be laborious for some and may impact the player’s overall gaming experience.
Speaking of laborious, I noticed a common theme within the user reviews concerning the narrative—especially around chapter 20. The story started to lose its charm, and it caused what was initially an exciting grind to become a chore.

I found that odd, honestly. There’s such a wonderful world that’s been built here. From the surprising depths of the human characters to the sheer scale of the mecha giants, it all paints a vibrant picture of a planet under siege.
Yeah, the plot does thicken over time, but it doesn’t always synchronize with the pace of the gameplay—which is a common critique. The story of survival against the odds doesn’t always coincide with the amount of grinding and button mashing during gameplay.
Let’s talk visuals. The mechs are rendered beautifully, and the thrill of adding diverse parts to build your ultimate battle machine is great eye candy.
Indeed. The visual style boasts quality animation that adds to the overall immersive experience. The scene transitions, the explosive super moves, they all paint a lively picture that’s satisfying to the eye.
The soundtrack and sound effects get the adrenaline pumping. And even though there’s a lack of voice acting, the game’s audio does a decent job building the atmosphere, which complements the tense situation Earth is in.
Besides, nothing sounds cooler than executing super attacks accompanied by flashy animations. It adds a certain charm to the game, doesn’t it?
It indeed does! As far as challenge level, the game builds on complexity and difficulty quite progressively. Yet, some players found the repetitiveness of combat encounters tiring.
Which brings us to replay value. Megaton Musashi W: Wired offers an impressive diversity of mech parts and secret components, which encourages replayability for those dedicated to creating the ‘ultimate’ mech.
Overall, comparing Megaton Musashi W: Wired with similar games in the genre, it stands out with its unique mecha design and customization. There’s a lot the developers got right, but improvement is also needed—especially regarding the game story in the latter chapters.

As for future hopes, I’d love to see new updates, sequels, or projects from the developers that lean heavier into speedplay and increases the variety in battles.
Definitely. With the potential this game has, it’ll be exciting to see LEVEL5 Inc.’s future direction.
With refinement in story progression and gameplay mechanics, and continued focus on customization, I think they have a gem waiting to shine brighter.
Looking forward to the next chapter of this alien invasion saga and more thrilling mecha adventures in the future!
