Gundam N-Extreme Manga Will Start in February 2022

Gundam Ace magazine will start a new manga series, Mobile Suit Gundam: N-Extreme, beginning with the February 2022 issue. This manga is based on the Mobile Suit Gundam: Extreme Vs. 2 XBoost arcade game and is part of Project N-Extreme. Takashi Minakuchi will work on the manga. [Thanks, ANN!]

News is scarce on what Mobile Suit Gundam: N-Extreme is about or who the main characters will be. Takashi Minakuchi usually collaborates with an author for manga, providing the illustrations while the author pens the story. He drew for Mamare Touno’s Houkago no Trattoria and Shin Araki’s Hero Classroom.

Mobile Suit Gundam: Extreme Vs. 2 XBoost launched in Japan in March 2021 and is part of the 10th anniversary of the Extreme vs. series. The game features units from Mobile Suit Gundam to Gundam Build Divers, with over 200 units available. You can play the game in arcade centers in Japan, and there is no official English version in the works.

Aside from a new manga series, Sunrise will have a new Mobile Suit Gundam anime as well. Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch From Mercury will start airing in October 2022 in Japan. There is no news as to whether any English streaming services will simulcast, or if the show will have a localization.

Mobile Suit Gundam: N-Extreme will start serialization in the February 2022 issue of Gundam Ace magazine.
