A Clash of Icons: Mecha Meets Hero Shooter

Overwatch 2, the globally beloved team-based shooter, has always been about high-octane action in a world worth saving. With its ensemble cast of 43 distinct heroes, vibrant maps, and cross-platform play, the game’s universe is a perfect stage for Gundam's larger-than-life Mobile Suits to drop in and turn heads.

Gundam Wing’s Timeless Legacy

First airing in 1995, Mobile Suit Gundam Wing marked a major cultural moment for the Gundam franchise in the West. Set in the After Colony timeline, the series chronicled the rebellion of five young pilots against the militaristic Earth Sphere Alliance using cutting-edge Mobile Suits.
Gundam Wing was notable for its politically charged plotlines, emotional depth, and unforgettable designs—making it the perfect series to honor with a major cross-media celebration like this one. Three decades later, its legacy remains stronger than ever.
