Suneater War

The Suneater War is a calamitous world war that took place more than hundred years before the current setting of Super Robot Wars IO.

It started when the remnants of the enigmatic alien race known as the Protoculture came to earth to investigate the strange energies emanating from the being in japan known as the Suneater. This coincided with the appearance of the mysterious entities known as the Dimensional Demons.

This spurred humanity to create the giant robots known as Jaegers to fight these demons and the Protoculture itself, starting the Age of the Jaegers. Two ancient conspiracies rose to power during this time : DRAUGR and HYDRA. This also marked the rise of the MegaCorp to the interstellar stage.

The war ended with the subjugation of Japan, humanity achieving stellar travel and space colonization technologies, the establishment of the DRAUGR hegemony in the Euro-Asian continent, and the complete destruction of the Protoculture remnants on Mars.
