Bandai Namco Reveals More Details on Gundam Metaverse at Conference
Japanese video game and toy manufacturing company, Bandai Namco, has just revealed new details about its Gundam metaverse project during the 3rd Gundam Conference on March 29.
As earlier reported, Bandai Namco plans to launch its virtual world called the Mobile Suit Gundam Metaverse. The space will feature games, videos, music, among other activities related to the Gundam universe, according to the initial report.
Upon revealing its new midterm plan during the Gundam Conference, Bandai Namco will roll out said plans this April. The company disclosed that it will “develop a metaverse for each IP as a new framework for connecting with fans.”
SIDE-G, the first IP metaverse, will feature the Gundam franchise that is set in space colonies reminiscent of the artificial habitats from the Universal Century timeline of the series.
