DaRmaZat During the Summer Game Fest livestream, publisher Bandai Namco Entertainment Europe and developer Bandai Namco Studios Inc. officially unveiled GUNDAM ROGUE ORBIT. The upcoming fast-paced sci-fi action game is scheduled to launch in 2027. It will be available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam. Framed as both an evolution for long-time fans and an ideal entry point for newcomers, the cinematic title introduces a completely brand-new standalone timeline within the iconic Gundam franchise.
The narrative centers on a high-stakes war for survival as humanity faces off against an unidentified, mysterious cosmic threat. You take on the role of an ace pilot designated as RE-X, the primary protagonist of this new saga. Strapped into the cockpit of the Gundam Helix – an advanced, high-mobility mobile suit custom-built for rapid maneuvering – RE-X must lead a ragtag band of unsung soldiers. Together, this makeshift squad stands as humanity’s absolute last line of defense against the invading enemy hordes.
GUNDAM ROGUE ORBIT‘s gameplay heavily emphasizes high-speed, explosive combat mechanics set across vast, open sci-fi environments. Controlling the Gundam Helix, you will engage in fast-paced skirmishes against massive waves of enemy forces, tackle giant bosses, and overcome seemingly insurmountable tactical challenges.
True to the series’ roots, the developers promise to balance these intense mechanical battles with an emotionally charged narrative, exploring a bold new direction for the Gundam universe.
