Yes, i know that a Gundam game on PC is... kind of a big deal, but if you're somehow excited about this in spite of Japan's disposition towards PC gaming, then I feel sorry for you.

I'm not really into Gundam, I have no idea where to start on what Gundam anime to watch and some of them look a bit too dated for me animation wise. Good news for those that want to play it on PC, I hope even more Japanese games come over to PC it seems we're only missing out on a few that aren't handheld games these days.
I wonder if it will have Gundam Iron Blooded Orphans material in it? I really like the look of Gundam Barbatos. As a Gundam fan, I wish Gundam Battle Assault series get's revive someday.
To anyone who hasn't played a game in the Breaker series, it is a bit of an oddball. Rather than being based on actual (fictional) Gundams, it is based on toy (non-fictional) Gundam plastic models. (Gunpla for short) The games are heavily based on customization and earning new parts to either build a copy of your favorite Gundam, or more commonly, some horrible Franken-Gundam that spans 5 different shows/timelines.
The story lines typically involve people who collect and battle Gunpla as a hobby/sport. The actual combat, thankfully, isn't two kids mashing Gundam models together while making laser sounds with their mouths as said battles take place in a sort of simulator pod.
(Gundam Breaker 2 is still one of the greatest)
@funsohng: Versus is made by the same folks behind Tales, Tekken and God Eater. I doubt versus specifically will get a port, though if we are to even hope for the possibility of an EXVS game on Steam, you're probably gonna have to buy SoulCalibur 6
Tales, Tekken and God Eater are all deved by different team, iirc.
Also Versus isn't exactly EXVS, they said EXVS will most likely be arcade only from now on.
@funsohng: Since Tales of Zestiria, Bandai Namco's internal projects are now developed by a single studio. In recent years, the creators of Tekken 7 are also the creators of Tales of Berseria, God Eater 2 Rage Burst and Gundam Versus. And considering the lack of Gundam Versus on PC, i think it's safe to believe that SoulCalibur VI will decide if their next game will release on PC or if they'll never make another PC game ever again.
I won't deny that I've some level of interest in the Breaker series since i've heard some pretty good things about it, but at the same time, being excited for it is a good way to disappoint myself regarding Ilinx's future PC support.
Would have much preferred a Gundam game from the VS series, this just looks like garbage thats gonna be on the €10 sales range within the 2nd month after launch...

Well, I've played the second one, and it wasn't really all that great. And people seem to find the third one even worse. And this one even worse than that.
