Back in February, the fourth game in the Dynasty Warriors: Gundam series, Dynasty Warriors: Gundam Reborn, was announced for a Summer release over here in the West, and today publisher Bandai Namco has confirmed that the mech-'em-up will be blasting its way to North America in July.
Although there's no word on a specific European launch date just yet, we'd hazard a guess that it's likely to be lurking around the same time frame, especially since online retailer ShopTo.net has the title down for release on the 30th May.
Regardless of when you can expect to jump into the pilot's seat, though, the game's newest trailer should get you in the mood for some mobile suit carnage. Sporting a rather ominous musical score and plenty of cutscene snippets, the two minute video's a little more arty than the usual Warriors media that we're used to. Take a peek and tell us which giant mech you'll be piloting in the comments section below.

No PS4? eff that
@PMasterTy9 Could happen eventually — there are rumours in Japan that it's getting a re-release with more suits, etc. on PS4.
Couldn't you guys find a place somewhere in either the title, body or "Game Overview" section that says PS3, PS4 or Vita, whichever console is appropriate? It's only an extra 3 or 4 characters to type. I'm not sure having a blank PS3 cover is enough.
@rjejr We always tag articles with the appropriate platform, regardless of whether or not we include the platform in the title or the text.
Dont know if id like this since the only characters/suits id know are from the original series/endless waltz movie
YEEEEESSSS FINALLY!!!! i WAS WAITING FOR A DAMN RELEASE DATE, !!! STILL DEBATING IF I WANT TO GET THE EURO VERSION JUST SO ID HAVE A PHYSICAL COPY!!! Hope i upgrade my HDD By then! the 160 is finally starting to run low!
@SuperSilverback So basically, you're saying you haven't seen 00 Gundam?
@SuperSilverback U could always youtube some series, check some dub sites or just go rip them like i do most of my anime lol =) Gundam00, Seed,and Unicorn are a must watch!!!
@SuperSilverback @DoublezZ01 Yeah, if you're curious about watching the more recent series, you can find all of Seed, Seed Destiny, and 00 on the official YouTube channel: www.youtube.com/user/GundamInfo/featured
No dubbed episodes, though, only subbed.
Dude... I'm way ahead of u...if it's gundam I'm always there, I'm praying for second season of build Fighters!!!
@DoublezZ01 I still need to watch that — I've heard that it's actually pretty great.
@ShogunRok dude... trust me being based off of models seemed Bazaar at first, but trust me episode after episode only gets better and better, the action is freakin sweet dude it Fills my Gundam high no problem!!!!
@ShogunRok - " tag articles "
Well that's nice and all, but if you guys can type "PS4 Exclusive" in front of inFamous can't you add "on PS3" after July in the title:
Dynasty Warriors: Gundam Reborn Enters Orbit in July on PS3, Fires Off a New Trailer
Or "PS3" in the first paragraph or sentence:
will be blasting its way to PS3 in North America in July.
I'm really not trying to be a jerk, its just that you guys are covering 3 primary systems - PS3, PS4 and Vita - and not everybody is going to own all 3 systems and a lot of games seem to be platform specific. Plus Playstation Mobile on Xperia pops up occasionally, but that always seems to be mentioned in the title.
@rjejr To be fair, for a game that's as niche as this, most people who click the article know it's on PS3 anyway. But fair point.
@ShogunRok - "most people who click the article know it's on PS3 anyway"
That's ha ha funny, b/c a few days ago I asked Sammy why he put "PS4 Exclusive" in an inFamous 2nd Son title, my argument being the game had already been out a month, everybody already knows it's a PS4 game, so it wasn't necessary to point that out. I guess I would argue large titles we all know about don't need it emphasized, but smaller games like this do need it pointed out more as I could easily see a Gundam game on PS3, PS4 or Vita.
Not saying either of us is right or wrong, just a different viewpoint I guess. NL does a pretty good job of always having 3DS or Wii U in the title, even though 9 of 10 articles are 3DS game based. Poor poor Wii U. NL also has categories, which I'm glad PS doesn't. I had Wii U bookmarked at first but there was never anything to read. I only own a PS3 but enjoy reading about PS4 and Vita games as maybe I'll own them someday.
According to Destructoid, the Date for North America is July 4th and it will only be $40. This is great news because i was initially worried that it would be $60, despite being digital only here. They've done that with both Kens Rage 2 and One Piece PW2.
$40 sounds like the standard price all Dynasty Warriors games should launch at, even as a huge fan of the series.
What stores will it be in?
