Another Century's Episode 2

Tak Kepford and Marina Carson are test pilots for a series of mecha called Arks. Following a test run of a new Ark series mecha prototype dubbed Gun Ark, the UCE base where the test was carried out is attacked by another group, attempting to steal a prototype Gundam also being tested there. During the attack, Marina is killed, Gun Ark is destroyed, and the Gundam prototype is stolen. Tak joins up with the Albion corps to help track down the stolen machine, but soon winds up involved in something much larger...

Another Century's Episode 2 is a sequel to the first title, and once again features fast-paced airborne robot action and dozens of mechs to pilot from a wide range of robot anime series. The game is structured similarly to the first, with the scenario broken into missions, each with multiple objectives, including secret objectives. Clearing missions earns Ace points, which can be used to purchase or upgrade mechs. The free mission and versus battle modes from the original game have also returned.

The game features playable mechs from the following series:

• Aura Battler Dunbine
• Blue Comet SPT Layzner
• Brain Powered
• Heavy Metal L-Gaim
• Martian Successor Nadesico
• Martian Successor Nadesico: The Prince of Darkness
• Metal Armor Dragonar
• Mobile Fighter G Gundam
• Mobile Suit Gundam 0083: Stardust Memory
• Mobile Suit Gundam: Char's Counterattack
• Mobile Suit Gundam Wing: Endless Waltz
• Superdimensional Fortress Macross
• Superdimensional Fortress Macross: Do You Remember Love
• Wings of Rean

A second version of A.C.E. 2, dubbed the Special Vocal Version was released shortly after A.C.E. 3. This version adds the the vocal theme songs for each series as optional background music, but is otherwise identical.
