Gameplay

The battle system in Custom Robo V2 is very similar to the first game in the series, except it features tag-teaming, which was never used in later 3D Custom Robo titles except for Custom Robo for the GameCube.

The gameplay of Custom Robo V2 is divided into two main parts: the over world and Robo battles. During the over world, parts of the game play like any other RPG, meaning that the player can control a character in a free roaming world where other characters follow. The main object of the game is to finish its plot by collecting every Robo, battle part, and other items, while winning every battle that moves the character from one part of the storyline to the next.
