It includes two celebratory missions \u2014 one for the game reaching 20 million sales, another marking the SRW franchise&#8217;s 35th anniversary. The pilot level cap also rises from <strong>150 to 200<\/strong>, giving veterans room to keep grinding, and the new BOOST mode is part of this free update as well.<\/p>\n<h2>SRW Y&#8217;s Final Chapter<\/h2>\n<p>The Anniversary Expansion Pack closes the book on SRW Y. According to Bandai Namco, the development team is shifting focus to <a href=\"\/blog\/super-robot-wars-zii-ruination-remastered-announced-english-2026\/\">Super Robot Wars Z II: Ruination Remastered<\/a>, announced earlier this week with confirmed English localisation. SRW Y launched in August 2025 and went on to hit 20 million sales \u2014 a remarkable milestone for the franchise. The Anniversary Pack is a fitting farewell.<\/p>\n<p>Pricing for the Anniversary Expansion Pack has not yet been announced; the previous Infinite Dimensions pack launched at USD 29.99 as a reference point. Check your local PlayStation Store or Nintendo eShop closer to 5 August for regional pricing, including Singapore.<\/p>\n<p>For more <a href=\"\/blog\/category\/game-news\/\">game news<\/a>, stay tuned to GameTrader.SG.<\/p>\n<p><!--GT-SCOUT source=\"Web (English)\" theme=\"Video games\" flags=\"DLC price not yet confirmed\"--><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Super Robot Wars Y&#8217;s final DLC drops 5 August: 33 new missions, Suletta&#8217;s Gundam Calibarn, Lelouch&#8217;s Byakuya Gekkoei, and a DYNAZENON team attack.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":7000,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_is_tweetstorm":false,"jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":[]},"categories":[11],"tags":[202,569,325,150,134,64,1024],"class_list":["post-7005","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-game-news","tag-bandai-namco","tag-code-geass","tag-dlc","tag-gundam","tag-nintendo-switch","tag-ps5","tag-super-robot-wars"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.gametrader.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/srwy-anniversary-pack-dlc.jpg?fit=1920%2C1080&ssl=1","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p13AlF-1OZ","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":6968,"url":"https:\/\/www.gametrader.sg\/blog\/super-robot-wars-zii-ruination-remastered-announced-english-2026\/","url_meta":{"origin":7005,"position":0},"title":"SRW ZII Ruination Remastered Announced \u2014 English Localisation Confirmed","date":"August 2, 2026","format":false,"excerpt":"Super Robot Wars ZII: Ruination Remastered was announced at the 35th Anniversary stream with English localisation confirmed \u2014 the first time this PSP classic comes West.
