Bandai Namco Entertainment has recently released the new Gundam Evolution launch trailer to celebrate its official unveiling on PC.
Bandai Namco Entertainment has officially announced that its popular free-to-play hero shooter Gundam Evolution will be shutting down its services soon.
Whoa...
I mean, never played it, but the general impression I got it was doing pretty well. Decently enough at least.
Oof. I mean... it's a replication of overwatch. Who'd want to play a mere abysmal copy of overwatch when you can just play overwatch?
It's not abysmal at all. It's actually really good for what it is, and I think it does a lot unique from Overwatch.
But there's not much reason to keep playing. There's not many maps and the seasonal content isn't that compelling. The same could be said for Overwatch itself though, honestly. I also think Gundam as a license sort of backfires for this type of game. The ven diagram of people who play FPS games and are super into Gundam likely isn't that large, and for Gundam fans, the mechs are quite limited when they're forced into a on-the-ground hero shooter.
Another game that's dead after a year. Though in the US versions case it won't even make it to a full year.
It was more Overwatch than it was Gundam. So much more could've been done with this game and make it different. Give fans a new Breaker game.
I've never seen a truly truly great Gundam game. Considering how popular it was the year from The Witch from Mercury, it was surprising.
Gundam Evolution Season 5 Storm will bring Susanowo from Mobile Suit Gundam 00 as well as a new battle pass and cosmetics!
