"Super Robot Wars"|lead=yes|group=lower-alpha}} is a series of Japanese [[tactical role-playing]] video games produced by [[Bandai Namco Entertainment]], formerly [[Banpresto]]. Starting out as a [[Spin-off (media)|spinoff]] of the ''[[Compati Hero]]'' series, the main feature of the franchise is having a story that crosses over several popular [[mecha]] [[anime]], [[manga]] and [[video games]], allowing characters and mecha from different titles to team up or battle one another. The first game in the franchise was released for the [[Game Boy]] on April 20, 1991,<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.suparobo.jp/srw_lineup/index.php |title=ラインナップ | スーパーロボット大戦 公式サイト[SRW] |website=Suparobo.jp |access-date=12 January 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180618180059/http://www.suparobo.jp/srw_lineup/index.php |archive-date=18 June 2018 |url-status=dead}}</ref> and later spawned numerous games that were released on various consoles and handhelds. Due to the nature of crossover games and licensing involved, only a few games have been released outside Japan, and in English; ''[[Super Robot Taisen: Original Generation]]'' and [[Super Robot Wars OG 2|its sequel]] were the first of these in 2006. The franchise celebrated its 25th anniversary in 2016,<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.crunchyroll.com/anime-news/2015/12/31-1/takanobu-terada-hints-at-big-plans-for-super-robot-wars-series |title=Takanobu Terada Hints at Big Plans for 'Super Robot Wars' Series |publisher=Crunchyroll |date=2015-12-31 |access-date=2010-03-28}}</ref> and its 30th anniversary in 2021, and ''Super Robot Wars 30'' was also released overseas.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.gematsu.com/2021/06/super-robot-wars-30-announced-for-ps4-switch-and-pc |title=Super Robot Wars 30 announced for PS4, Switch, and PC |publisher=www.gematsu.com |date=2021-06-15 |access-date=2021-07-11}}</ref>
