Gundam Cross War can be played as a tabletop TCG, or serial codes and 2D barcodes on the physical cards can unlock their use in a smartphone app. Once you've unlocked the card, you play play in real time online, battling with friends from the comfort of your own home.
Players assemble two decks, one of characters and one of mobile suits, and take on the role of a captain attempting to sink an enemy ship. The rules, while simple to learn, and still deep enough to provide diverse tactical options and the opportunity for clever outplay that TCG enthusiasts demand.

This initial booster set's lineup includes Mobile Suit Gundam IRON-BLOODED ORPHANS, the new series premiering this October, as well as Mobile Suit Gundam, Mobile Suit Gundam SEED, and Mobile Suit Gundam The Origin. Illustrations carry a new sense of immediacy beyond that of previous Gundam card games.
