===Video games===
''Robotech'' spawned five video game licenses, of which the most recent three were released:

* ''[[Robotech: Crystal Dreams]]'' was a cancelled release for the [[Nintendo 64]] game system. It was initially being developed by [[GameTek]], but in 1997 [[Ocean Software]] purchased the rights to the game and took over as both developer and publisher.<ref>{{cite magazine |title=Letters |magazine=[[Next Generation (magazine)|Next Generation]]|issue=37 |publisher=[[Imagine Media]] |date=January 1998 |pages=171–2}}</ref> The game would have taken place during the period between the [[SDF-1 Macross|SDF-1]]'s destruction and the launch of the SDF-3. The game had a Zentraedi invasion during what was scripted in the series as a period of peace.
* ''[[Robotech: Battlecry]]'' (2002) for the [[Xbox (console)|Xbox]], [[PlayStation 2]], and [[GameCube]]. The gameplay takes place in the Macross era, and features a storyline running exactly concurrent with that era's historical events. Multiplayer support is limited to one-on-one. Several of the voice actors from the original series, including Tony Oliver, Melanie MacQueen, Dan Woren, and Cam Clarke, reprised their original roles, or voiced new characters in this game. The game was a relative success, even though many fans complained of the over-cartoonified look of the game.
* ''[[Robotech: The Macross Saga]]'' (2002) for the [[Game Boy Advance]], a side-[[scrolling shooter]] that resembles the Japanese [[Super Famicom]] game ''[[Macross: Scrambled Valkyrie]]''.
* ''[[Robotech: Invasion]]'' (2004) for the Microsoft [[Xbox (console)|Xbox]] and the Sony [[PlayStation 2]]. First-/third-person shooter. The gameplay covers the ''New Generation'' part of the story, with support for single player missions and multiplayer online matches. Features Cyclones, transformable body armor/motorcycles. As with ''Battlecry'', several of the original voice actors reprised their roles. Unlike ''Battlecry'', it is not backwards compatible with the [[Xbox 360]].
* ''[[Robotech: The New Generation]]'' (2007) for [[mobile phone]]s. A top-down [[scrolling shooter]] that covers the ''New Generation'' part of the story, leading up to the ''[[Robotech: The Shadow Chronicles|Shadow Chronicles]]''. The player can play as one of three characters (Scott, Rook and Rand), each with their own special weapons. The player also has the ability to change into "Battloid Mode" through the collection of Protoculture. ''Robotech: The New Generation'' features famous music from the TV series, as well as the most evil of all the villains.
*''Robotech: The Macross Saga HD Edition'' (2021) for the [[Nintendo Switch]]. A remake of ''[[Robotech: The Macross Saga]]'' (2002) for the [[Game Boy Advance]] with new 3D models, dynamic lighting, enhanced effects, and high-definition backgrounds. As of March 2021, this title has only been made available on the Nintendo eShop in the Australia region.<ref>{{Cite web|date=2021-03-01|title=GBA game Robotech: The Macross Saga sees surprise return on Switch with new HD Edition|url=https://nintendoeverything.com/gba-game-robotech-the-macross-saga-sees-surprise-return-on-switch-with-new-hd-edition/|access-date=2021-03-01|website=Nintendo Everything|language=en}}</ref>
