The gameplay is praised for its engaging mechanics, balance, and variety, offering a satisfying combat experience that blends grounded and anime-style elements. Players appreciate the unique character abilities and combo systems, although some express frustration with the gacha mechanics for cosmetics and certain character imbalances. Overall, the game is seen as a solid fighting experience with potential for growth, despite some technical issues at launch.
- “I'm unfamiliar with mecha IPs, but the gameplay is superb.”
- “Interesting mechanics, good balance, creative moves/abilities, wide variety of combo routes, superb execution, no brokenness (no TODs, no loops), good focus on the neutral game, and characters that play and feel unique.”
- “The gameplay feels crisp, all the characters look and sound great, and there's clearly a lot of love that's been put into it by devs who actually care about fighting games!”
- “My biggest gripe with the game is the gacha mechanic for cosmetics. I just want all the colors for my favorite mechas, but I have to grind for in-game resources and hope to get them when I spend said resources in the gacha.”
- “Kaguya feels terribly weak with a mechanic that relies on doing gray damage but then having a meter-consuming combo-ender to make that gray life go away, making her feel terribly weak against anyone with good defense.”
- “It's similar to GBVS in terms of gameplay, but the game suffers from a lack of defensive options.”

The music in the game is generally well-received, with comparisons to the Mega Man X series and a strong emphasis on enhancing the mecha combat experience. While some players find it enjoyable and fitting, others feel it is merely adequate, suggesting a mixed reception overall.
- “The OST reminds me of songs similar to the Mega Man X series.”
- “For me, what makes a mecha fight so cool is the awesome super robot soundtrack, which makes the SRW games tolerable to play, even though I'm not a big fan of turn-based games.”
- “Also, the music is pretty nice as well.”

The current story elements are minimal, primarily consisting of arcade and mission modes, which some players find useful for practicing tactics. However, a more substantial story mode is anticipated in an upcoming free update, promising to blend fighting mechanics with turn-based tactics, which has generated excitement among fans. Overall, while the existing content may feel lacking for single-player enthusiasts, the future additions could enhance the narrative experience significantly.
- “Fans of the properties will be interested in the VN-style story bits, and as a new player, I found the easy mode fairly easy but still entertaining, while the normal mode offers a fun challenge.”
- “The product package can feel underwhelming if you are particularly interested in single-player content, but that is going to be helped with a story mode (that seems to combine the fighting game system with a turn-based tactics game) being added in a free update in the near future.”
- “The story/arcade stuff is fine and useful to try out tactics in a somewhat 'real' battle.”
- “The product package can feel underwhelming if you are particularly interested in single player content, but that is going to be helped with a story mode (that seems to combine the fighting game system with a turn-based tactics game) being added in a free update in the near future.”
- “It is pretty barebones (arcade, multiplayer, combo trials, missions etc), the usual features but that's ok because this isn't a AAA 60-100 bucks game.”
- “Fans of the properties will be interested in the VN-style story bits and as a new player I found the easy mode fairly easy but still entertaining and the normal mode a fun challenge.”
