people asking for Elden Ring 2 & they get this..........

 

[Northeastmonk]

It looks promising. There's quite a few Breaker games and then the arena shooters. Last time I got excited about a Gundam game was Dynasty Warriors Gundam.

 

[[Sigma]]

GUNNNDAAMM!

 

[//DEVIL//]

My kind of fun. Thank God it's not a soul/Elden ring game. Hate that garbage

 

[IAmRei]

Gundam? That's no gundam : ))
That's just slap weird alien looking bio mechanic to gundam brand, duh ..

 

[ShirAhava]

Looks like its Gundam in name only.....

 

[EekTheKat]

As a bonus, Mick Gordon is apparently on the soundtrack. Mick on a Gundam game was something I didn't expect.

Definitely keeping an eye out on this one though.

 

[IAmRei]

yeah, it doesn't even looks like standard mobile suit looks, way too much looks like biomechanical. ugh

 

[Dr. Samuel Hayden]

HOLY SHIT

 

[Durin]

Looks pretty cool, including the short bits of gameplay...but I have been burnt by bad Gundam games before.

I want to be optimistic though, especially with Mick Gordon is doing the music.

At least we have Haro.

 

[Moondoggy]

At least it looks better Than Witch From Mercury, not that that's say much.

 

[Coconutt]

Biggest surprise for me, armored core but with a gundam skin. I'm all in

 

[Kacho]

HOLY SHIT

That explains the dope music.

Day gero

 

[SomeNorseGuy]

Awesome trailer, do love myself some mecha goodness.

Sigh...

For those unaware...

Gundam Eight, the current Gundam Manga, so this is hardly surprising.

Gundam 00's also pulled the Biomechanical aliens out near 15 years ago for the movie

But this is not a surprise given the current manga push, im only surprised they didn't push Eight in the title.

i'm pretty much aware, i was in deep with gundam since 90s, I'm pretty much people called UC elitist,
although I like 00's first season, and that biomechanic alien aint loved by many and reminds us to macross/robotech as well

note: i forgot gundam eight is existed XD
i left gundam since mercury released, btw

 

[StereoVsn]

So, is this basically like Armored Core? Always fun to see some major Mech gaming.

Yeah aliens in Gundam has never been good. 00 was unwatchable near the end with that crap. They did it in AGE (with a twist) too which also didn't go over well.....I actually read the flrst part of eight and didn't like it....I don't consider that very Gundam either. Hopefully the gameplay is good but i can't bring myself to get excited about this and I say that as someone who owns almost every Gundam game.

 

[bender]

Don't know anything about Gundam but this looks rad.

I knew it!! That chugging at the end of the trailer was doom af

 

[Fbh]

If it's an actual single player game it looks pretty promising.
I'm always down for some mech action

 

[DonkeyPunchJr]

Does Gonzito approve?

 

[Liopleurodon]

Does Gonzito approve?

I wouldn't know.

 

[Ma-Yuan]

I am in

 

[Danjin44]

I need a demo, if they nailed the gameplay then I'm in. Gundam series alway had weird off shootings here and there and like someone else said in Gundam 00 movie they were also fighting aliens.

Gundam Rogue Orbit is being internally developed by Bandai Namco Studios, the main in-house development arm of the publisher Bandai Namco Entertainment.

While Bandai Namco frequently licenses the Gundam IP to external partners or collaborates with outside teams, this specific title is being handled by their core team. The studio is best known for developing major first-party franchises like Tekken, Tales, Ace Combat, and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate (in collaboration with Nintendo).

 

[Sakura]

Nothing about this looked Gundam. Might as well just be an Armoured Core spinoff or something.

 

[Jinzo Prime]

HOLY SHIT

I can't believe they're actually spending money on GUNDAM, it's been so fucking long

Dude I've been waiting for something solid to sink my teeth into. Everything is either multiplayer, simplistic, or strategy based.

Talking Gundam titles obviously.

 

[newtypepilot]

 

[Agent_4Seven]

Looks like a Gundam game finally worth playing. Never thought I'd see the day.

 

[Danjin44]

 

[LavitzSlambert]

This has some serious potential, wish they would throw more resources at a truly excellent Gundam game like Federation vs Zeon, Journey to Jaburo, and Zeonic Front. Hope this one ends up being really great, though I'm not sure what's going on with the alien things.

 

[DeaconOfTheDank]

Was hoping for Armored Core VII, but I'm hoping this will like scratch that itch

 

[kizito]

Where is this gif from ?

 

[near]

A Gundam game with a decent budget, never thought I'd see the day.

 

[Neolombax]

Wasn't aware of aliens in Gundam, but alright. Gameplay looks fluid and I like the mech design.

 

[Comandr]

Wasn't Gundam supposed to be real robots? We are definitely in super robot territory here. I remember when something as simple as the zero system pushed its pilots to insanity or worse.

Feels like Bamco is bending in order to make the IP relevant to the modern audience. Square Enix would be proud.

I mean even on original Gundam once Amuro awakened to his Newtype powers the robot fights became less "real".

To me, it gave off some Daemon X Machina vibes at first. Which is not a bad game at all. I was cycling through Gundam and Daemon X Machina in my mind when I saw the mech. I wanted it to be Gundam. To me, Gundam is raw fire power with laser swords being the last resort. To me, they need to make your Gundam look powerful. I was hesitant about the design. I will definitely get it if delivers. I got Daemon X Machina for free from EGS. I'm not complaining. I'm a big fan of Zeta and Wing. I never saw the appeal of SeeD.

 

[Danjin44]

I never saw the appeal of SeeD.

The original Seed was trying too hard to be exactly like original Gundam 1979 TV show even having pot points.
