Take customization to the extreme with the Omega Customization System and battle with one-of-a-kind combat units in this all-new third-person shooter mecha game.
Not being restricted to bipedal builds, you can freely customize your mechs to include multiple heads, legs, and arms in whatever positions and angles you choose.

Experience the heart-pounding mecha action that only your Omega Customized units can provide. Destroy enemy units, collect their parts, and customize your favorite mechs even more. Complete a variety of missions as you battle, customize, and then battle and customize some more!

Overall, Custom Mech Wars is a mediocre mecha game that gets the customization somewhat right but fails on dealing with how the combat should work. While the Earth Defense Force games have their low budget infused charm, they are at least fun to play. Custom Mech Wars sadly lacks this redeeming feature and is just an arduous chore.
I’m in a bit of a tricky spot reaching a verdict on Custom Mech Wars. I like the concept, I like the tone, and the customization is a lot of fun.
