Super Robot Wars Alpha Gaiden, for the Sony PlayStation, is the first side-story in the Super Robot Wars Alpha series, continuing from Super Robot Wars Alpha. Super Robot Wars Alpha Gaiden, or simply, Alpha Gaiden, included several rare series choices, such as After War Gundam X, Turn-A Gundam and Xabungle, all of which debuted in the game.

Alpha Gaiden also included the final appearance of the Maso Kishin Banpresto Originals in the Alpha series, and the last appearance of the characters, besides Masaki Andoh and the Cybuster, Shu Shirakawa and the Granzon, and Lune Zoldark and the Valsione. Although many fans suspected this is due to copyright backlash with Winkysoft, it is stated in an interview with the creator of Super Robot Wars that he merely wants to give more plot attention towards the other original characters, considering the previous titles have dealt with the Maso Kishin plots rather extensively.

Additionally, the game features the first appearance of Sanger Zonvolt, who will later become one of the main characters of the 2nd Super Robot Wars Alpha.

STORY:
Shortly after the events of Alpha, the Earth Federation has covered up many of the events in the climatic battle with the Aerogaters, but the gravity shockwave from the detonation of the Excelion from Gunbuster in the Battle of the Solar System's Absolute Defense is rapidly approaching the Earth, and threatens to wipe out the space colonies and even the planet itself. The Earth's only hope is the Aegis System, which could shield the Earth Sphere from the shockwave.

Unfortunately, the heroes are sent to an alternate future, where the Earth has been ravaged by the wave. Faced with a new threat in the form of the Ancestors, the heroes must find a way to return to their time and prevent the alternate, dystopic future from happening.

  Manufacturer's description:

A big hit with "a Super Robot Wars" sequel appeared to enjoy a side story. "Mobile New Century Gundam X" and "Xabungle" and a new race. Allegations that follow from both the allies' security guard action "and added," proficiency "by improving the system, such as by varying degrees of difficulty, each can enjoy a game even more profound.
