A video game adaptation of the OVA series titled {{nihongo|''Macross Plus: Game Edition''|マクロスプラス -Game Edition-|''Makurosu Purasu Game Edition''}} was released by Shoeisha Co. Ltd. for the [[PlayStation (console)|PlayStation]] in 2000 in Japan only. The game features some members of the original cast and staff, and includes parts of the original soundtrack, as well as some cutscenes in the form of excerpts from the Movie Edition of ''Macross Plus''. It includes the variable fighters and mecha used in the OVA, as well as select units from the original ''Macross'' series. The game also introduces the Neo Glaug (a transformable version of the Zentradi battle pod) as an in-game exclusive. Unlike other ''Macross'' games, transformation of variable fighters is not possible during gameplay; each level has the player's unit fixed in one mode only. Aside from the single-player story mode, two players can battle each other in vs. mode.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://archive.org/details/macross-plus-game-edition-ps1-complete-art-scans |title=Macross Plus: Game Edition [SLPS-02791] (PS1) Complete Art Scans |publisher=[[Internet Archive]] |access-date=2024-12-10}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=https://psxdatacenter.com/games/J/M/SLPS-02791.html |title=Macross Plus Game Edition |website=PSX Data Center |access-date=2024-12-10}}</ref>
