Bandai Namco, 7 Feb 2008
- ZZ, CCA scenarios added
- Federation, Zeon, AEUG, Titans, Axis selectable at start; can start play from the Gryps Conflict
- MS IGLOO and Harmony of Gundam MSes will appear.
- Due to the wide spread of the game, covering from the One Year War to Char's rebellion, "Blood of Zeon" system is reduced in importance. Replacing it is a system that lets you choose your faction's relative morality---"Colony drops and poison gas? We'll leave that to your imagination."
- Units can now be set to self-control by type.
- Over 400 types of units appear, counting variations. "We'd like to think we've pretty much got them all by now."
