The official announcement of a GUNDAM Trading Card Game (TCG) has sent ripples of excitement through the Gundam fanbase! A promotional video, posted on the official GUNDAM TCG X (Twitter) account on September 27th, launched the "new global TCG project #GUNDAM."

The format remains unclear; whether it will be solely physical or incorporate online play is yet to be revealed.
Complete details will be revealed on October 3rd at 7:00 PM JST during Bandai's CARD GAMES Next Plan Announcement livestream on the official Bandai YouTube channel. The event will feature popular actors Kanata Hongo and Kotoko Sasaki, along with former TV Tokyo announcer Shohei Taguchi.

Anticipation is high among fans, who are reminiscing about Bandai's past, now-discontinued TCGs like Super Robot Wars V Crusade and Gundam War. Many are already referring to the new game as "Gundam War 2.0." While many details are still under wraps, keep an eye on the official GUNDAM TCG X (Twitter) account for the latest updates!
