DYNASTY WARRIORS®: GUNDAM®2 returns with robots the size of mountains and battles to make your eyes water.
Hertfordshire, UK- January 14, 2009 - KOEI today announced that the European release of DYNASTY WARRIORS: GUNDAM 2 for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, and PLAYSTATION®3 computer entertainment system will be on March 27, 2009.
With the Gundam phenomenon once again taking the gaming and anime worlds by storm in Japan this is the chance for European gamers to discover what all the fuss is about. A chance to take control of robots the size of tower blocks. A chance to unleash enough firepower to level entire cities. A chance to wade into battle against hundreds of armed to the teeth Mobile Suits. A chance to indulge in some of the most elaborate combos and incredible attack animations yet to feature in a Warriors game. And a chance to light up their TV screens with a spectacular feast of pyrotechnic mayhem as armies of giant robots clash in massed battles on a stupendous scale.
About DYNASTY WARRIORS: GUNDAM 2
DYNASTY WARRIORS: GUNDAM 2 combines the devastating power of the Mobile Suit, the rich legacy of the GUNDAM universe and the furious Tactical Action game play of the DYNASTY WARRIORS series. The game will thrust players into incredible battles against legions of enemy Mobile Suits on distant planetary surfaces and in the far reaches of outer space. For the first time, DYNASTY WARRIORS: GUNDAM 2 will let players engage in melee battles against colossal enemies such as the Psycho Gundam. The massive Psycho Gundam can quickly reconfigure their bodies into titanic mobile fortresses which can move with remarkable speed. However, highly-trained pilots can utilize their own Mobile Suit’s speed, agility, and of course firepower to defeat these deadly juggernauts.
DYNASTY WARRIORS: GUNDAM 2 will also include new stories featuring mecha from the latest Gundam anime, plus mecha from Char’s Counter Attack and more. With mecha parts collected throughout the course of the game, players will be able to adapt a Mobile Suit which can be piloted into combat.
Developed by KOEI’s award-winning Omega Force team, DYNASTY WARRIORS: GUNDAM 2 will also include online versus play.

I must say, I'm looking foward to this just as much as Strikeforce, since I'm a big fan of Gundam.
Although, what would be perfect is a Dynasty Warriors: Gundam Strikeforce :rolleyes:
What, a guy can dream, can't he?

Yeah, BlackKite from KW's and other members there have said how great it's. It's supposedly much better than DWG1, so I'm really excited about getting it!

Good and detailed review that is: http://koeiwarriors.co.uk/gm2-review.php

Yeah, the part that really sells it for me is collecting the parts of the common mobile suits and being able to play as them. There are so many of the cannon fodder I want to play as!
I wonder if DWG2 will be released in Italy too or if I must buy it from UK... I can't wait anymore!
Insp. Chin
22-01-09, 06:06 PM
It will be released in Italy with Italian language if I'm not wrong :)
Thanks! :D
It's the 27th of March, right?
When will be opened the official site?
Insp. Chin
22-01-09, 06:22 PM
Yes 27 March :)
The site will be http://www.dynastywarriorsgundam.co.uk/2/ but it's the splash page at the moment.

A DWGSF would best work with G Gundam because the Gundams there have hyper modes. :D
And to a lesser extent, the Seed series because for the SEED mode... though it doesn't seem to change the MS looks. :rolleyes:

Insp. Chin

I believe it will have Spanish text, I'll re-confirm it with you.
As for Spanish forum, we should have Spanish and Italian corner or Embassy but we have to find the particular mods for those section. As for this matter, we can always discuss it on Support & Feedback forum but not in Gundam 2 topic here :)
Leady FF ^^
25-01-09, 09:56 PM
Yes, it will have Spainish text ^^
Yes, it will have Spainish text ^^
Italian confirmed too? I must preorder DWG2 somewhere, I want to play since March 27th :D

26-01-09, 11:01 PM
yep, Italian text too ^^

Leady FF ^^
27-01-09, 09:32 AM
Yes French text will be in! (and for Strikeforce ;P)
When will be out the official boxart for the european version? :)
I hope that will feature Strike Freedom Gundam and Nu Gundam too!
Leady FF ^^
28-01-09, 04:26 PM
It should be shown pretty soon (well Nu Gundam is there and I think Strike Freedom is on the back of the box).

Well it'll probably be great however it looks. :) Well as good as it can be without the Gundams from Gundam 00 atleast. :D
Well, considering the huge amount of request for 00's addition, I can see they're adding it if a DWG3 comes up. For now it's impossible though since the show isn't even finished in Japan yet.
But anyway, the 00 Gundam seems very suitable in a Warriors game IMO. :)
I think that DWG3 will feature 00 1st Season and DWG4 the second one XD
I hope we'll finally get a Musou with all of Gundam series. I wanted SEED to, only DESTINY isn't enough :\
Thadius
04-02-09, 10:28 PM
I would be happy if future titles had other storylines like SEED/Destiny and Wing, but seems like a natural progression really. What would be nice to see, would be an empires setting for DW:G. But the wait is killing me for this since DW6 empires is a way off as well.

Hi guys, I went with an invitation to play DWG2's English version. Since I've got a headache right now, I'll post my impression tommorow, though it's nothing you won't really know already. But I can confirm that the English VA's return, so that's great news.
Can't wait to read your opinion :D
Japanese voice too?
LittleDragonZ
21-02-09, 10:44 AM
Can't say so yet, I'll say within when it's all posted. Expect it tommorow. But I think one of the best bits to note was the English VA crew returning like I've just said.

Was playing one of the Extra missions with Insp. Chin last night. It was the maximum difficulty (-1 bar) on hard mode. We have level 30 Master Asia in Master Gundam and level 26 Judua in the Double Zeta. It was still rock hard first we had to kill Domon which tooks us a good ten mins of one person attacking and the other farming drops to build up shields from peons.
Then Kamile, Haman and M'Quve (sp?) came out which took another 20mins of surviving by the skin of our teeth with energy bars in the redzones.
Then the Big Zam came and locked us in the middle part of the level, while I had full shields ffrom M'Quve's drop Insp. Chin had about 1mm of life left so hewas basically trying to not get shot while I defeated the Big Zam. We thought when it fell that was it...
...but then Master Asia came out and that he is completely ROCK HARD on this mission with 360 blocking and powered up attacks. We had to interim-save to go home but we both now have only a tiny bit of life left and honestly I dont know how we can win.
We'll try again tonight.
It's when you the this perfect balance of diffiiculty of mission and power of the characters and co-op that Musou games are untouchably fun.
Believe in the power of your Gundam. Go TRANS-AM! XD
(00 units would be very fun in this game, in TRANS-AM mode they reach lightspeed...)
Oh! Vibration function included or not?
Leady FF ^^
25-02-09, 01:10 PM
Not sure on that (we dont have a dual-shock in the office).
I believe in the power of my Gundam (just don't know about the Double Zeta - that big lunk!)
Leady FF ^^
26-02-09, 08:36 AM
Sorry double post!
But I unlocked Level 4 Parts for Master Asia!! Ahahahaha W007!!!
Edit: well, Insp. Chin was a big help with that as well :)

Anyway any idea if there is gonna be a demo to download from PSN store?

Does anyone know if the 5 gundams from Gundam Wing are in this game, because I've got DWG1 at home and its made we watch the old cartoons again and when I get DWG2 I'd like to be able to use them.

27-02-09, 07:37 AM
Sorry no online demo version this time.
Only Hands-On in Europe was at London Expo last October where we displayed the TGS demo.
and as for the question about the Gundam Wing suits there's still only Wing Zero and Eypon to play with I believe.

Whats a debug kit when it's at home?
Ranger Ryu
27-02-09, 05:37 PM
it's a console that can play games while they're still in development basically used to test the game etc.(I think that's what it is lol)
Insp. Chin
28-02-09, 09:55 PM
Yup, Ranger Ryu is right, that's why my ZZ Gundam suddenly reset to Lvl. 1 :'(
The max level of Mobile Suit is still 10, and character one 30? :)
Onislash
01-03-09, 12:03 PM
does this mean every character needs to master every suit from scratch (sort of) like DW:G?
Leady FF ^^
01-03-09, 12:47 PM
I'm not sure what the max character level is but I have Master Asia and Domon at level 31, so its definately higher than 30.
The Suits don't level-up now rather the parts they have equipped determine their power (and the parts are carried across no matter who is piloting them).
There are parts Rank 1,2,3 (and Rank 4 parts - but you have to complete a certain mission to unlock those for a suit) that can be collected by completing missions.
You can also upgrade parts you don't install straight-away in your Mobile Suit Lab (you can also attach special elements to them as with the weapons in WO). The Mobile Suit Lab levels up the more you use it, mine is level 4 :cool: The higher it's level the better upgrades it does and the more options you have.
FYI, the max character level is 50. :)
Thadius
01-03-09, 03:47 PM
What do you need to upgrade the parts in the MS lab? Do you have some kind of in game currency or is it restricted to 1 or 2 slots to upgrade at a time?
Leady FF ^^
01-03-09, 04:18 PM
it depends on the level of you MS Lab how many parts you can upgrade or attack at a time. When you first start off the Lab can only work on one or two pieces at a time, later on they have more slots ^^
Leady FF ^^
24-03-09, 08:33 AM
The more I have been playing this, the more it seems better and better. There terminal idea is great it should be all in all DW games I think. For example last night playing as Master Asia and Domon Chin and I are invited to join either the Titans or the AEUG (actually it looked like there was four factions we could have choosen). Once you have chosen it started off a new branch of the story. Later on Judau asked us to join his scrap metal company (wtf?)...but we declined and Roux ask us to hunt him down hahaha..
Also our MS Lab is level 6 now, turning our some great part attachments now, Sniper and Air Master ^^

That does sound good I do desire a Gundam game that lasts because there is all of 2 Gundam games in Australia.
Leady FF ^^
24-03-09, 09:42 AM
Trust me this lasts. We have played around 35hrs just on completing the Official Mode and around 70% (well, i hope its 70% because its going on forever now -_-) of Master Asia and 20% of Domon's missions. Havent even touched 95% of the characters story missions yet.
Leady FF ^^
24-03-09, 09:03 PM
And the new things DW: Gundam 2 quiz game in the terminal. Insp. Chin and I got 6 / 10 on our first try. This game has a bit of everything lol
(we also unlock the Musha Gundam - but not license yet -_-)
Leady FF ^^
24-03-09, 09:16 PM
It's 10 questions on the Gundam universe and your progress in the game so far. Things like:
'Which one of these battles did not occur?' - then it list four MS v MA fights, you have to pick the fake on. Gundam v Psycho Gundam in this case.
Other question was 'How did Fa react when Ramb Ral died?'
things like that, i don't no what the reward is if u can get 10 correct.
So they're not related to the series, right?
Leady FF ^^
24-03-09, 09:41 PM
Some are some arent (but I think only stuff that is in the game as well).
Oh, so there's a quiz in the EU version too, eh? Nice to hear that. ^_^
When I saw the trophy list for the overseas version, I thought they removed it... ^.^;;
(FYI, they seem to replace the achievements in JP 360 version which involve the quizzes with this Ace Points thingy, which I suppose is somehow related to the online play. :rolleyes: )
Onislash
25-03-09, 09:54 AM
Eesh, that quiz would mostly likely be on series I havent seen. Not that I score highly on quizzes though.

We'll be showing the 1st batch of English screenshots and video of Dynasty Warriors: Gundam 2 tomorrow (31 March 2009). The mission is the one in the space, which you would hear the voices of Lacus, Seabook, Kycilia, Judau, Roux and Ghingham.
Please stay tuned as we would update the official site as well as adding the video and the screenshots here.

Tomorrow it will be available (tho it's not a good one, but still, better than nothing.) :P

22-04-09, 08:49 AM
Yeah i'm very excited for this game I Believe it comes out tomorrow for Australia (23/4/09) or maybe on the 24th. But what really disappoints me is the reviews I've bee reading for this game. I can feel the excitement and hype for it but if you guys go to sites such as for e.g. "Metacritic" its only got an average of 45/100. But obviously if you a Gundam or "Warriors" fan who really cares.

It was posted on GameFAQs, few people have confirmed it being at the likes of Sydney.
I've got the game. Have played for 3 hours which seemed longer, have used Amuro, Athrun & Kira. The latter two obviously new to the series and have plenty of style. More like show-offs, like the Hyaku Shiki suit.
The gameplay because of the speed increase like from the advanced combo system, really, really makes your adrenaline go lol. Some moments were just crazy fun. Seriously, buy this now!
Insp. Chin
22-04-09, 09:10 PM
Haha oh hell yeah told you Gundam 2 is sooo awesome!! BEST GUNDAM GAME EVER!!!
It's stunning, I got headache since i began playing. XD

22-04-09, 09:41 PM
LOL I couldn't decide who to use before I turned it off - having the music loud and playing after work just made me tired. I was debating on Milliardo or Domon, but needed to come online instead and talk of the awesomeness.
By the way, Zechs, Milliardo says ''write me off just yet'' not ''rub me off just yet'', but it still means the same thing.
Insp. Chin
22-04-09, 09:45 PM
Try Domon dude, his move and air-Musou is just way too awesome + his VO is soooo good!
LittleDragonZ
22-04-09, 09:55 PM
Yeah, I will do. I think I'll finish Amuro's official mode first though. I just wanted to try the newcomers before turning it off, so I did use Kira & Athrun. LOL the team musou's for Athrun and Kira are awesome. All of Athrun's SP attacks are awesome.
Oh, and I must try Heero & Milliardo tommorow, too.
