From September 15 to 18, ‘Tokyo Game Show 2016’ was opened at Makuhari Messe, Chiba ken, Japan.

Celebrating the 20th anniversary this year, ‘Tokyo Game Show 2016,’ the show that represents Japan, is co-hosted by Computer Entertainment Supplier’s Association (CESA) and Nikkei BP, and specially cooperated with DWANGO. The event is organized into a business-day on September 15 and 16, when only game business people and mass communication officials can enter, and a public-day on September 17 and 18, when all the visitors can enter.

Before the opening of ‘Tokyo Game Show 2016,’ Bandai Namco Entertainment (BNEI) progressed a presentation event ‘2016 Pre-TGS Press Tour,’ which introduces the new titles from its office located in Tokyo. In this event, it presented the major titles facing releases from BNEI and explained their features.

Through this presentation, ‘SD Gundam G Generation Genesis’ session was progressed, and a producer Kotaro Usui from BNEI introduced features of the game.

‘SD Gundam G Generation Genesis’ is a new game released four years after ‘Overworld’ for PSP, and it follows ‘Relive the Original Works’ type, which can reenact the best scenes by following the original story.

This game tells various stories for compiling 100-year history of Universal Century, and the number of mobile suits appeared in the game is more than 500. The biggest feature is the improvement in battle scenes by changing the graphic from 2D to 3D and newly adjusting the ratio of the mobile suits. And more various strategic elements are available everywhere in the game.

As ‘SD Gundam G Generation Genesis’ had been created with ‘worldwide release’ in mind since production stage, its title ‘Genesis’ was meant to be finding new markets. Moreover, since various new systems and contents as well as newly drawn graphics are added, the game took about 4 years to complete although it is limited to Universal Century.

About the volume of the game, more than 60 missions are contained. Also, because of sub-missions apart from basic conditions for achievement in one mission, it takes 1-2 hours to clear one mission. As download contents, a new mobile suit will be presented, and it is revealed through the session that DLC mobile suit is not creatable purely with development.

Usui said, “Gundam series is a content very popular not only in Japan but also in the world, especially Asia, so we are trying to extend the content by active glocalization at the headquarters level.” And, “As it is a Korean-version Gundam game that is released in a long time in Korea, we hope to get a lot of support.”

The Korean-version of ‘SD Gundam G Generation Genesis’ will be released on November 22 for PlayStation 4 and PS Vita.
