/

Bandai Namco Entertainment Asia announced that the Expansion Pack for Super Robot Wars 30 is now available for the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and PC. The DLC will launch its content in waves as it contains new content such as a Super Expert Mode, new missions, and more. 

The first set or the Expansion Pack is now available today, April 13. The rest will be available next week on April 20. 

Here’s a full rundown of what’s available in the Expansion Pack

Super Robot Wars 30 Expansion Pack

Set 1 (April 13)

  • Special Mission – This will grant the Spirit of Steel, Prana Converter, and Aos Arc Power Parts, as well as the Attacker and ExC Bonus Skill Programs

Set 2 (April 20)

Content

  • Added Difficulty: Super Expert Mode Plus – This is an extreme difficulty level with changes to many different game rules, for people who want to try a different kind of playthrough. Enemies are even stronger than in Super Expert Mode, while your side is much more restricted in how much they can power up—you need more EXP to level up, upgrades cost a lot more, and repeatable missions are off the table, along with other changes. You will earn 10 new and very potent Power Parts over the course of your playthrough, and you can carry these parts over to other game modes after clearing the game. Note: You cannot change difficulty mid-game in this difficulty mode. We recommend playing this mode on New Game+.

  • Chain Area Mission: Brother and Sister – Edge and Az, the dual protagonists of SRW 30, talk about their past together in this set of three area missions.

Added Missions

  • Additional Area Missions: 20

  • Additional Onboard Missions: 25
