Unboxing [JP]: Mobile Suit Gundam UC - Standard Edition (PS3)

We have ourselves another import order. This time I decided to go after another Gundam game since I finished playing Side Stories earlier this month.

Mobile Suit Gundam UC (機動戦士ガンダムUC), also known as Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn, is an action mecha game developed by FROM SOFTWARE and published by Bandai Namco. This video game adapts the first three OVA episodes of the anime series of the same name, and was released only in Japan back in 2012.

The game features three campaigns played from the perspective of each playable character; Banagher Links, Full Frontal, and Marida Cruz. There's no multiplayer with this title for those wondering, so it's entirely single-player focused.

Gundam games in general are import friendly aside from the dialogue and menus. Mobile Suit Gundam UC is available to own in retail form in Japan. I bought the game pre-owned on Solaris Japan but new/sealed copies are also available. It's also available on Play Asia as well.

It's also available in a special edition release that includes a novel and a bonus disc featuring a Special Digest of Episodes 1-3, Digest Footage up to The Ghost of Laplace and Staff/Cast Interview archives, Mobile Suit Gundam UC FILM&LIVE Digest and an orchestral performance with Hiroyuki Sawano. You can order the special edition on both Play Asia and Solaris Japan.
