As a seasoned gamer and die-hard fan of the Mobile Suit: Gundam franchise, I must say that the upcoming virtual reality experience with Silver Phantom is nothing short of exhilarating! Having grown up watching the original series and following its evolution through the years, I can’t help but feel a sense of nostalgia combined with an eagerness to explore new frontiers.
Although Mobile Suit: Gundam first aired in the 1970s, Bandai Namco continues to reap significant profits from this franchise. The mecha series has sustained its longevity by producing fresh narratives set in various universes and timelines featuring these space-faring robots. With the upcoming Mobile Suit: Gundam Silver Phantom, the series is venturing into uncharted territory as it will be presented in virtual reality. This film experience allows viewers to assume the protagonist’s role, and some notable talent remains associated with the project, which will premiere on October 3rd.
In the universe where it all began, the forthcoming virtual reality event will unfold, with Bandai Namco Filmworks verifying that Silver Phantom is set within the “Universal Century 0096” timeline. Interestingly, this isn’t the only release of 2021 that delves into the narrative that first introduced Gundam fans to Amuro and Char. Gundam: Requiem For Vengeance, set to premiere on Netflix on October 17th, offers a series viewed from the perspective of those battling alongside Amuro as members of the Principality of Zeon.
Silver Phantom’s Cast
Beginning October 3rd, you’ll have a chance to experience the virtual reality Gundam movie on both Meta Quest 2 and Meta Quest 3 devices. Here’s the current lineup of Japanese actors involved in the project:
- Y?ki Shin as Male Protagonist

If you’re looking for a summary of Bandai Namco Filmworks’ first virtual reality movie based on Mobile Suit: Gundam, here it is: Argent Kiel, a mercenary group not aligned with either the Earth Federation or Zeon, was hired to eliminate Azami Meghigne, a high-ranking official in the Earth Federation who had covert ties with Zeon. However, before they could carry out the mission, their fleet was ambushed by the Jegan squadron from the Earth Federation Forces. Amidst the confusion, a silver Gundam hidden within Argent Kiel emerged into space.
