Gundam Evolution ends service, servers shuts down this November

/

Bandai Namco Online announced that their online team-based FPS Gundam Evolution will be ending service on November 29, 2023.

“It is with great sadness that we are announcing the conclusion of Gundam Evolution,” says executive producer Kazuya Maruyama in the announcement. “We wanted to create a title that brought FPS fans and Gundam fans together. We challenged ourselves to create an authentic Gundam FPS game that could be played globally.”

By July 26, 2023, the studio will disable the ability to purchase EVO Coins (premium in-game currency), EC Pod Limited, as well as well as any updates on these systems.

Seasons 6 and 7 still releasing as planned

Despite its closure, they are still releasing new content as planned before release. On August 23, 2023, a new unit as well as two new maps will be added to the game. Season 7 will then launch on October 25 and will add one more new unit and a new map

With the game closing for good, the developers will be increasing the amount of Capital Points you can earn while playing the game so that players can at least earn not only the new unit coming to the game but also earn whatever they have still locked without the need of EVO Coins.

Season 7 will be the game's last run, and there won’t be any Ranked rewards to chase with it being the final season.

The developers are still planning one final Mission Briefing stream scheduled on July 21, 11 PM PDT to go through the closure of the game.

Gundam Evolution is a free-to-play team-based FPS based in the world of Gundam and was officially released on September 22, 2022. It was released on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC.

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle has the potential to be a favorite for fans of the franchise, delivering an authentic Indiana Jones experience with its story and cinematic presentation. While the game shines in its exploration and puzzle elements, the combat and stealth mechanics’ lack of gameplay variety holds it back.

This will be music to the ears of kids who grew up on the series, but for the uninitiated, there’s nothing quite like the Mario & Luigi games. Mario & Luigi Brothership does its best to appeal to a wide range of players with charming presentation and a strong new Battle Plug system, but not everyone will be enamored with its reflex-testing gameplay.

Life is Strange: Double Exposure Review - A Nostalgic Return That Falls Flat

Life is Strange: Double Exposure brings back Max Caulfield with new time-manipulation powers, but struggles to capture the original’s emotional weight. While the dual-timeline mechanic is engaging, the story’s weak twists, forgettable characters, and technical issues hold it back. A nostalgic revisit, but not a standout entry in the series.
