SD Gundam G Generation Eternal: US Network Test Announced!
Good news for Gundam fans! Despite a radio silence since 2022, SD Gundam G Generation Eternal is alive and well, and preparing for a network test open to US players! Applications are now open until December 7th, offering 1500 lucky participants a sneak peek from January 23rd to 28th, 2025. This test expands beyond the initial Japan, Korea, and Hong Kong regions.
This latest strategy JRPG in the popular franchise lets players command a vast roster of pilots and mecha from the iconic Gundam universe in grid-based strategic battles. The SD Gundam series, known for its "super deformed" (smaller, stylized) versions of classic mecha, boasts an incredibly extensive cast of characters and units. At one point, these chibi-style kits even surpassed the popularity of the original mecha!
A US Debut
The new SD Gundam game is sure to excite long-time fans. However, Bandai Namco's Gundam titles have a history of inconsistent quality and premature cancellations. Let's hope SD Gundam G Generation Eternal (quite a mouthful!) proves to be a high-quality addition to the franchise.
