Bandai Namco Entertainment announced Gundam Rogue Orbit during the Summer Game Fest 2026 livestream on June 5 and 6, 2026. The game is a new original action title in the Gundam franchise, developed by Bandai Namco Studios. It is scheduled for release in 2027 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam. The announcement trailer showed photorealistic visuals and high-speed combat, a departure from the cel-shaded or anime-style aesthetics of recent Gundam games.

Players control protagonist Rex, also referred to as RE-X, who pilots a new mobile suit called Gundam Helix. A partner Haro unit named Vee accompanies the pilot. The story centers on survival against an unknown enemy, with fast-paced battles featuring enemy hordes and bosses. The trailer depicted combat using weapons such as funnels, bits, and large melee weapons resembling anti-ship swords, with enemies appearing as beast-like robots.

Bandai Namco later released official screenshots for the game, and its official website and X account went live. The company stated it will reveal more details in the coming months. The game was also noted in a weekly roundup by Automaton, which consolidated major game announcements from the week but did not add new details about Gundam Rogue Orbit.
