Back to traditional methods and improved gameplay
With the lukewarm reception of Gundam Breaker 3, Bandai Namco is returning to the foundation of the franchise in Gundam Breaker 4 by placing emphasis on well-refined mechanics and technical performance. Unlike what the title would suggest, this installment stands as the fifth major release in the series, with a focus on bringing back the charm of the first three games, which developed a devoted fan base.
Gundam Breaker 4 offers a wide range of over 250 mobile suits, including well-known Gundams such as Gundam Aerial from the incredibly popular Witch from Mercury series. The game provides an extensive personalization option where you are allowed to customize your units by assembling them from different Gundam parts of your choice, which produces limitless creative possibilities.
Innovative features and advanced customization
The game introduces spicy new elements like co-op multiplayer mode for up to three players and a chance to equip two different weapons simultaneously resulting in new strategy combinations. In addition to that, the diorama mode will be there to facilitate users to configure elaborate scenes with highly diversified backgrounds, environmental elements, and special effects, bringing Gunpla aficionados an immersive experience.
The new Gundam Breaker 4 will come in different versions, such as the Digital Deluxe and Digital Ultimate Editions. The Digital Deluxe Edition gives an early access to parts from 15 hero mobile suits and five story mission packs, while the Digital Ultimate Edition enlarges the customization options by including a special Diorama Pack consisting of easels and posters.
