iOS

Android

Through QooApp

3. Tap the bottom option to install the app onto your Android device.

NOTE: During a situation where a game cannot be played without downloading a new version of the app, QooApp can be used to download the updated version. The updated version of the app will not appear immediately after the Google Play and App Store updates so please be patient when it happens.

Android Emulator on PC

Although this game cannot be directly played on the PC, you can opt to use an Android Emulator to play the game. Playing the app on a PC can be advantageous, especially for those who do not own a smart phone or those whose mobile phones and/or tablets struggle to play the game properly.

2. Download the QooApp .apk file and install it onto your Android emulator.
3. Open QooApp and look for the Super Robot Wars X-Omega (スーパーロボット大戦X-Ω) app in the games section.
4. Click on the bottom option to install the app onto your Android device.


Re-rolling Accounts

Re-rolling is a common practice in mobile games. Due to the random nature of Gacha's, some players will constantly start new games until they achieve the best possible outcome on their first free roll that usually occurs during or after a tutorial. This way re-rollers technically have control over their outcomes at the start of the game by ensuring that their first roll will eventually be a unit of high quality or simply their favorite unit. Game developers try and prevent this from occurring or mitigate its impact since re-rolling tends to add to server loads and can provide them with improper metrics of the actual amount of players playing the game. However, there are still ways to re-roll accounts, although they might not be practical in terms of time spent re-rolling.

As of 11/13/2015, Rare units can no longer be drawn from the first Gacha roll, making re-rolling a much less painful and enjoyable process for those who are attempting to draw a specific unit.
