Gundam enthusiasts are thrilled with the announcement of an official GUNDAM Trading Card Game (TCG). On September 27th, the official GUNDAM TCG account shared a promotional video on X (formerly Twitter), marking the launch of the "new global TCG project #GUNDAM." This announcement aligns with the celebration of the 45th anniversary of Mobile Suit Gundam, a beloved franchise that has captivated audiences globally for decades. While it remains unclear whether the TCG will be exclusively physical or if it will include online play, the excitement is palpable.
More information is set to be disclosed during the BANDAI CARD GAMES Next Plan Announcement on October 3rd at 19:00 JST. This event will be livestreamed on the official Bandai YouTube channel and will feature popular actors Kanata Hongo and Kotoko Sasaki, along with former TV Tokyo announcer Shohei Taguchi. Hongo, a known GUNPLA enthusiast who participated in the GUNPLA 40th Anniversary Project in 2020, brings his passion for the Gundam series to the event, adding to the anticipation.
The announcement has stirred nostalgia among fans, reminiscent of Bandai’s earlier TCGs like Super Robot Wars V Crusade and Gundam War, both of which have been discontinued. Enthusiasts are already dubbing the new TCG as "Gundam War 2.0," reflecting high expectations for its release. As most details are still under wraps, fans are encouraged to follow the GUNDAM TCG's official X account for the latest updates and announcements.
