The latest and greatest in robot brawling: DYNASTY WARRIORS®: GUNDAM® 3! Relive the thrill of the anime series with all-new cel-shaded graphics, improved AI and updated system mechanics. Real action is here!
Dynasty Warriors: Gundam 3 is a single-player and multiplayer hack-and-slash action game. The game takes place in a crossover setting where mobile suits and pilots from multiple Gundam timelines coexist in a shared universe. Characters drawn from series such as Mobile Suit Gundam, Zeta Gundam, Char's Counterattack, Gundam Wing, and Gundam SEED are brought together by a new conflict that forces them into alliances and rivalries. Players take the role of a chosen pilot who commands a mobile suit in large-scale battles, with the overarching objective of defeating enemy forces and shaping the course of the war across interconnected story missions.
Gameplay follows the Koei's Warriors / MusÅ-style formula, where players face large numbers of enemies in open arenas divided into sectors. The player's mobile suit uses melee combos, ranged attacks, and special moves to defeat hundreds of opposing units. Capturing and holding sectors is a key mechanic, since controlling territory influences reinforcements and map flow. Boss-style encounters pit the player against rival aces in one-on-one duels, requiring the use of dodges, cancels, and powered-up strikes to break through their defenses.
Progression is tied to both pilots and mobile suits. Completing missions rewards experience and parts that can be used to enhance stats, unlock new abilities, and modify suits for better performance. More than 50 mobile suits are available, each with unique weapons and movesets, ranging from classic RX-78 units to transformable Gundams. As players advance, new suits, pilots, and storylines are unlocked, providing access to additional perspectives on the central conflict.
Multiplayer functionality allows two players to fight cooperatively, either locally or online, sharing progress and combining strategies to clear difficult maps. Visuals adopt a cel-shaded style distinct from prior entries, aiming to more closely resemble the anime source material.
