Japanese developers have released so many games that they are running out of letters to designate new parts of Super Robot Wars

SRW games have been delighting connoisseurs for many years.

The Super Robot Wars franchise has a long history. Since 1991, over 50 projects have been released, and developers have faced a non-standard problem.

Instead of a serial number for the names of Super Robot Wars games, letters were sometimes added, for example SRW Y, T, or the combination DD. As a result, the franchise has reached the point where the alphabet is almost exhausted.

A journalist pointed this out during a conversation with the SRW producer, and he stated that the team is now looking for a way out - they can use several letters at once, as they have already done for some parts in the past:

«Yes, that's true. We've already started discussing what to do when supplies run out, but at the idea level it doesn't necessarily have to be a single letter of the alphabet, there are examples like \"IMPACT\" and \"UX\", and we want to come up with the best name, considering how it sounds and how cool it is».
