What is Gundam Rogue Orbit anyway?

You don’t need to know your Universal Century from your Cosmic Era, or even how to pronounce GQuuuuuuX, to enjoy Bandai Namco’s new Gundam game, its lead creators say. Gundam Rogue Orbit, announced last week at Summer Game Fest 2026, is set in a brand-new Gundam universe with all-new characters, and serves as a jumping-on point for potential new fans, according to producers Yuya Tomiyama and Shinya Satake.
