Good news for Gundam fans! Despite a radio silence since 2022, SD Gundam G Generation Eternal is far from canceled. An upcoming network test, opening the doors to US players for the first time, is set to launch.
With 1500 spots available and applications open until December 7th, this is a golden opportunity for fans to experience the game before its official release (January 23rd-28th, 2025). This marks a significant expansion beyond the game's initial Japanese, Korean, and Hong Kong player base.
SD Gundam G Generation Eternal, the newest strategy JRPG in the franchise, lets players command a vast roster of pilots and mecha from the Gundam universe in strategic grid-based battles. The game's impressive scope encompasses almost every character and mobile suit from the franchise's long history.
While the Gundam franchise is globally recognized, the equally popular SD Gundam line might be less familiar to some. "Super Deformed," these charming, stylized mecha kits were once so popular they even surpassed the original Gundam models in sales.
A US Debut
Anticipation is high for SD Gundam G Generation Eternal's arrival. While Bandai Namco's Gundam game releases have had a mixed track record in the past, hopes are high that this title will be a standout success.
