Mobile Ops: The One Year War, known in Japan as Mobile Suit Gundam Operation: Troy (機動戦士ガンダム Operation: Troy Kidō Senshi Gandamu Operation: Troy?), is a third-person shooter (different from the Playstation 3 title Mobile Suit Gundam: Crossfire) for the Microsoft Xbox 360 that is based on the anime series Gundam. The game features combat in mobile suits, on foot and in vehicles (much like Battlefield series of games, sans the mobile suits), as well as online play. As the title suggests, the game is set during the One Year War and will feature many iconic mecha from that era.

[edit] Plot

While not much is known about the actual plot of the game it is clear (hence the title) that the game takes place during the One Year War of the Universal Century timeline and therefore only includes mobile suits of the Mobile Suit Gundam, Mobile Suit Gundam 0080: War in the Pocket and Mobile Suit Gundam: The 08th MS Team series. The game features at least two modes of play: Mission Mode and Online Mode (however it is speculated there will be 4 player split screen versus and LAN functions seen in some officially released gameplay videos). Recent sources have stated that the game will mainly focus on the Multi-Player mode via Xbox Live. Namco Bandai Games still says that the game features a five-mission single player tutorial for each of the game's factions.

[edit] Playable units

Although no official information as to how many or exactly which mobile suits will be playable has been released so far it is known that the game will feature a variety of units, such as:

Federation Mobile Suits:

Zeon Mobile Suits:

However the game will not only feature mobile suits. It has been mentioned that tanks will also be playable.

According to Japanese Gaming News Site; "Game Watch", Players will be able to customize their mobile suits with decals, colorschemes, and more.
