More Information Coming Soon from Bandai

The official GUNDAM TCG Twitter account launched a promotional video on September 27th, announcing a new global TCG project under the #GUNDAM hashtag. This exciting news coincides with the Mobile Suit Gundam 45th anniversary celebrations. The format of the game – whether solely physical or incorporating online play – remains unconfirmed.

Complete details will be unveiled on October 3rd at 7 PM JST during Bandai's CARD GAMES Next Plan Announcement livestream on the official Bandai YouTube channel. The announcement will feature popular actors Kanata Hongo and Kotoko Sasaki, and former TV Tokyo announcer Shohei Taguchi. Hongo, a known GUNPLA enthusiast, previously participated in the GUNPLA 40th Anniversary Project.

Anticipation is high among fans, reminiscent of Bandai's past TCGs like Super Robot Wars V Crusade and Gundam War (both now discontinued). Many are even referring to the new game as "Gundam War 2.0." For the latest updates, follow the official GUNDAM TCG X (Twitter) account.
