Gundam has been a popular series in Japan and has grown globally. Personally for me, Gundam Wing was my first Gundam anime that sucked me into the world of giant mechs. We’ve seen many crossovers and Dynasty Warriors-like games. At last, a 2-on-2 fighting arcade Gundam game called Mobile Suit Gundam Extreme Vs Maxi Boost ON announced for the PlayStation 4. Soon, Gundam fans will get their hands on the game when it’s set to launch worldwide this year.
