===Story Mode===
Each mecha has its own story mode, which plays out like an anime series, with each battle broken up by an episode title, [[eyecatch]], and dialog scenes before and after each battle. Each mecha has its own story (where it is the star of its own show), and decisions made in the dialog scenes, as well as the conditions under which a battle is won, can cause some stories to branch out and have multiple paths and endings. The other mecha and characters naturally make appearances, but their role may vary from their actual origins to fit the "star" mecha's story.

===Hero Challenge Mode===
An "Arcade-style" mode where the player fights through each of the major mecha and bosses. Various hidden mecha and pilots found in the game can only be used in Hero Challenge Mode. In the Dreamcast version, points earned in Hero Challenge Mode and the VMU minigames could be used to purchase hidden characters including boss characters and movies.

===Matching Service===
In Japan, the game is re-released as "Choukou Senki Kikaioh For Matching Service" because of its online functionality.
