Bandai Namco Announces Gundam Rogue Orbit Game for 2027
Bandai Namco revealed the next high‑mobility action title, **Gundam Rogue Orbit**, at Summer Game Fest 2026. The game is slated for release in 2027 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and PC (Steam). It will serve as the centerpiece of the RG Project, a shared universe that links the game to the forthcoming anime *Mobile Suit Gundam RG XARX‑ZERO*.
The RG Project is overseen by acclaimed sci‑fi director **Kenji Kamiyama** and writer **Toh Enjoe**, who together are crafting a new narrative set decades after humanity discovers a mysterious autonomous interstellar object that provides gravity control, faster‑than‑light communication and a technology called Cognitive Materialization. The object later becomes a hostile ecosystem known as the "Apocalypse," forcing survivors to abandon Earth.
Developers Yuya Tomiyama and Shinya Satake said the title uses photorealistic graphics and fast‑paced combat inspired by *Armored Core VI* to attract players unfamiliar with the Gundam franchise, positioning the game as an entry point for a global audience.
