In the previous
Gihren no Yabou entries, the player took on the role of a commander beginning in the One Year War era and led his forces to victory. By following “if” scenarios, the plot could unfold following player decisions rather than canon, leading to game-original units and forces such as the “Casval Custom Gundam” and “Tem Ray Army.”
In this newest entry, the player can also choose to take on the role of a general or a pilot, leaving the choice of whether to lead the entirety of a nation’s forces or simply rise up the ranks up to the player! Along with One Year War and Second Neo Zeon War scenarios,
Mobile Suit Gundam UC units and characters including the Unicorn Gundam, Kshatriya, and Sinanju are at your command!
The long-awaited continuation to
Gihren no Yabou begins here!
■ Brand-new opening movie and anime cutscenes!
▲ The opening movie consists of nearly a minute and a half of new animation set to
Soldiers of Sorrow!
▲ The story views history from a number of perspectives. Many of these “if” routes have brand-new anime cutscenes!

The newest entry lets you take on commander, general, or pilot roles during the One Year War or Second Neo Zeon War.

Building influence and potential like this is another fun way to enjoy the game!

■ “if” plotlines based on the player’s actions!
Alternate “if” scenarios can appear after some player choices. For example, let’s look at Amuro’s scenario:
▲ Amuro’s objective is to defend the White Base, and sure enough the Red Comet, Char, attacks.
▲ Reaching Jaburo, Amuro is arrested for the crime of misappropriating Operation V materials. He’s offered clemency in exchange for enlistment, but…
▲ Of course, choosing “yes” results in his deployment to the front lines at the head of an independent squadron. But “no” leads to extended confinement!?
