A sequel to the game, titled Super Robot Taisen OG Saga: Endless Frontier EXCEED has been announced. The game is set between Super Robot Wars Original Generation Gaiden and 2nd Super Robot Wars Original Generation. It will follow the adventures of Alady Nashe and Neige Hausen (an elven/'fairy' princess from Elfetale), two original characters that will be introduced in Exceed, across the Endless Frontier. Along with them are two new mechs, one is the Arkon, a mech based on the Ialdabaoth from Super Robot Wars Compact 3, and the Faycried, a mech based on a Fairlion from Super Robot Wars Original Generation 2. The story given is as follows:
At the previous battle, most of the Cross Gates were destroyed and the power unleashed from their destruction destroyed the walls of dimensions and combined all the worlds together.
Once called “Separated World”, Endless Frontier is now renewed into a single world. The different inhabitants chose to keep going, joining forces with one another to live in this new world.
However, at this combined world, there are now “a world that was never reached”, but only a few knew. And the return of the fairies, those that disappeared at the previous battle… This is Endless Frontier, the story begins with the youth that sees himself into this new world, and the return of the fairy princess.
Similar to its predecessor, the game features stylized role-playing gameplay elements and the same battle systems of push button commands. Support and defence functions have been upgraded from the former system to a new far more complex one. All the playable characters (Haken Browning, Kaguya Nanbu, Aschen Brodel, Suzuka, Reiji, Xiaomu, KOS-MOS) from the prequel will return with new rosters of techniques and abilities along with various new features added to old ones.
The game also features Axel Almer, Einst Alfimi and Fighter Roar, three characters from the main Super Robot Wars series (Advance, Impact, and SD The Great Battle respectively) who also appeared in the Super Robot Taisen: Original Generation series. MOMO from the Xenosaga series also joins the party.
In addition, Eizel Granada, Henne Valkyria, Kyon Feulion, Koma, Anne Sirena, Dorothy Mistral, Saya and T-elos are returning as enemies and allies in the form of support characters. New enemies such as Shura Clan members, officers from Agraddo Heim and more of the W Series androids and their origins will be introduced, such as a biodroid called Pete Pain.
The opening song was performed by Nana Mizuki titled "UNCHAIN∞WORLD" and the movie sequences were done by the Animation Studio XEBEC. The game was released in Japan on February 25, 2010, selling 65,000 copies within the week, coming second in the Media Create's weekly sales chart, short just 6000 copies of first place.
There has been no word yet of a US release.

Famous quotes containing the words robot, endless, frontier and/or exceed:
“Let’s start with the three fundamental Rules of Robotics.... We have: one, a robot may not injure a human being, or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm. Two, a robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law. And three, a robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Laws.”
—Isaac Asimov (1920–1992)
“Truth is that concordance of an abstract statement with the ideal limit towards which endless investigation would tend to bring scientific belief, which concordance the abstract statement may possess by virtue of the confession of its inaccuracy and one-sidedness, and this confession is an essential ingredient of truth.”
—Charles Sanders Peirce (1839–1914)
“What is an artist? A provincial who finds himself somewhere between a physical reality and a metaphysical one.... It’s this in-between that I’m calling a province, this frontier country between the tangible world and the intangible one—which is really the realm of the artist.”
—Frederico Fellini (b. 1920)
“The squirming facts exceed the squamous mind, If one may say so.”
—Wallace Stevens 1879–1955, U.S. poet. “Connoisseur of Chaos,” Parts of a World (1942)
