Godzilla Melee Remastered Mecha Kaiju: Mechagodzilla, Kiryu, Mecha-King Ghidorah

The organic roster on unlockable kaiju will get the trailers. The machines will get the Mothership. Godzilla: Destroy All Monsters Melee Remastered puts Showa-bodied Mechagodzilla, Kiryu, and Mecha-King Ghidorah in the same twelve-fighter list, which is something the western GameCube disc never fully did. If you are here because a trailer showed the original 1970s Mechagodzilla instead of the 1993 suit, you are not hallucinating. Wikizilla logged the model swap. Wikizilla also logged that the announcement trailer still used Heisei-style roars on that body. Whether that mismatch ships is unknown. The hitboxes will follow the new mesh.

Play these three when you want energy fights, anti-Ghidorah tools, and a plan for Adventure’s last stock. They are worse teachers than starters. Buy them after you can tap a fireball without charging by accident. See controls.

Mechagodzilla (Showa body, MG2 slot)

Old FAQs call this slot Mechagodzilla 2 because the western GameCube used the Heisei MG2 design. The remaster slot is the same unlock depth — formerly Destoroyah plus Rodan plus Mecha-King Ghidorah — now wearing Showa plates. Finger missiles, chest ray, the fantasy of a walking turret. Historically doubled melee in Rage and resisted edged hits. If that resistance survives, Gigan players will cry and Anguirus players will grin.

How to use him:

• Hold the beam when you have knockdown. Do not hold it as a greeting.
• Walk people into walls on London or Tokyo. Turrets like corridors. See maps.
• Save Rage for melee if the remaster still turns his punches on. A beam-only MG is a sitting duck for grabs.

How to fight him: crouch, aim head, grab after a spent ray. Heisei Godzilla can win this if he does not pride-war the chest laser.

Kiryu (Mechagodzilla 3)

Xbox and Japanese extras in the original generation, standard equipment now. Absolute Zero is the film memory people bring into the shop. In DAMM terms he is another mech with a different mesh and a different special list, not a second campaign from the 2014 PS4 game. Buy Kiryu because you want the suit, because you want the matchup versus Destoroyah that GameCube kids could not run locally, and because the roster hub promised twelve names with no SKU tax.

Do not expect a hidden 13th movie roster around him. He is the 12th slot, or one of the 12, depending on how you count Orga. He is not DLC bait in the announcement. If Atari later sells more mechs, that is an updates story.

Kiryu on the Mothership is cinema. Kiryu on Monster Island is a laser in a field. Pick the city that matches the fantasy.

Mecha-King Ghidorah

Ghidorah with more steel and less mercy. Heavier, sometimes slower, still a flyer, still a three-beam problem. He used to unlock from beating Adventure as King Ghidorah, which made him a flex. Now he is a shop row. If you already bought organic Ghidorah, pause. You do not need both on night one. Buy Rodan instead so you can fight either dragon. If you hate the organic version’s float, the mecha version’s extra armor might be the one you actually wanted.

Team Battle joke: Ghidorah plus Mecha-King Ghidorah is a 6-head joke and a nightmare to camera. House-rule it for parties. See online multiplayer.

Shared mech lab plan

1. CPU Versus on day Tokyo as Mechagodzilla. Ten minutes beams only, ten minutes melee only.
2. Same versus Heisei Godzilla and versus Gigan to test the edged-resist rumor.
3. One Adventure finale as a meat monster against a CPU mech, then swap.
4. One Destruction match. Mechs can melt buildings. Military will notice. Learn to drop the lead.
5. Only then spend a second currency stack on Kiryu or Mecha-King Ghidorah.

Why mechs sit together on this wiki

Because new players search “how to beat Mechagodzilla” and land on a single machine when the remaster has three. The Mothership finale is still “a mech,” but the shop is a buffet. Linking these three together also keeps the tier list honest: we will not rank “Mechagodzilla” as one row if Kiryu and Showa MG play like different guns.

Until the demo prints move lists, treat mechs as energy-positive, grab-negative, flyer-optional. If a patch flips that, this page changes. If your friend swears MG is secretly Heisei Godzilla with chrome, make them play Anguirus for a set. Chrome still gets thrown into a parking garage. That is the whole game. See how to play.
