According to Deadline, Legendary and Bandai Namco Filmworks have announced the director for the upcoming Gundam live-action film.

The reason for his departure is currently unknown.
Recently, Bandai Namco revealed the official DLC roadmap for Gundam Breaker 4, which begins at the release of Story Mission DLC 1 on October 24. Five major DLCs will release over time with the game’s Season Pass ($29.99).

Final Weapon’s review of Gundam Breaker 4 calls the game a “clunky yet endearing mess,” as technical bugs affected the game at launch. Although the combat loop is simple, the customization features and story make it a title that Gundam fans can certainly enjoy.
Lastly, Gundam Breaker 4 is available now for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and PC via Steam.
