Gundam Evolution to arrive on Steam in September, console release in November

Months after having closed network tests on consoles and PC, an official release date for Gundam Evolution has been released today.

The free-to-play 6v6 shooter will be released on September 21 on Steam. On November 30, the game will arrive on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S. To celebrate the announcement, trailers for the Missing Briefing and sorties will unveiled. Check those out below.

In Gundam Evolution, players can choose from a group of 12 suits from the Gundam franchise. Gundam Evolution producer Kazuya Maruyama said this in a developer’s blog about picking suits for the game:

“In a more traditional hero shooter, players have access to unique characters each with their own special weapons, stats and skills. When comprised into respective teams, each of these characters can play a unique and often specific role on the battlefield. Often, there is a necessity to not only select specific characters but also maintain the role of that character throughout your matches to win your battles.

For GUNDAM EVOLUTION, we wanted to provide players the freedom to select their favorite Mobile Suit Unit from their favorite Gundam Anime. Considering character balancing, map layout and the like, this was truly a difficult task for us, but one that we have been extremely passionate about since beginning development of the title.”
