Release Date: March 18, 2009

Get ready for the ultimate Gundam experience! As part of the franchise’s 30th Anniversary Project, Mobile Suit Gundam vs. Gundam Next brings together Gundams from all animated series, movies, and OVAs. This sequel to the original Mobile Suit Gundam Vs. Gundam arcade game takes the gameplay to the next level with new features and improvements.

Gameplay Improvements

• Manual Defense: Mobile suits with shields can now defend against attacks by pressing down and then quickly pressing up. Shields are invincible and can withstand unlimited attacks.
• Next Dash: Perform a sudden boost in any direction, which also doubles as a cancel maneuver, reducing cooldown time on beam weapon intervals and extending melee combos.
• Expanded Arcade Mode: Branch off into other routes upon success, represented as Alpha, Beta, or Gamma. Complete missions without losses or achieve high scores to unlock additional “NEXT” routes, providing a much harder challenge.
