Bandai Namco and Look North World Bring the Thrills of Netflix’s “Gundam: Requiem for Vengeance” to Gamers Worldwide
Look North World, a pioneering UGC game studio and publisher led by Alexander Seropian, Bungie founder and former Disney executive, and Bandai Namco Entertainment Europe, launched GUNDAM: REQUIEM FOR VENGEANCE RED VS BLUE via Unreal® Engine for Fortnite (UEFN). The game is a competitive, team-based experience available now in Fortnite for all players worldwide on any platform they play Fortnite on.
Inspired by the explosive, gritty new Netflix animated series, “Gundam: Requiem for Vengeance,” GUNDAM: REQUIEM FOR VENGEANCE RED VS BLUE allows up to 20 players each match to align with either the Zeon or Earth Federation Forces factions and square off. When a match starts, players select their battlefield and deploy into their respective bases to equip themselves with an arsenal of their choosing. The primary objectives are to engage in tactical combat to secure the valuable MS Reactor Power. Factions are allocated a Cache in proximity to their base, and additional Caches are distributed across the terrain. Players acquire MS Reactor Power from the Caches. Teams must strategically collaborate to collect 200 MS Reactor Power, which then lets them activate their faction’s signature Mobile Suit, be it the Gundam EX or ZAKU II (Unidentified Type) Solari and have a devastating effect on the tide of battle.
GUNDAM: REQUIEM FOR VENGEANCE RED VS BLUE brings players the ultimate Gundam power fantasy in Fortnite, with access to a massive arsenal of popular weapons in each faction’s armory to maximize combat and robot takedowns while minimizing searching, looting, and traversing. The game is designed to deliver tense combat and thrills across the battlefield, culminating in an immersive, first-person cockpit view as if they were a real Gundam pilot. Players who take the most vengeance on their enemies will climb the global leaderboards and be entered to win Vbucks and Gunpla model kits from Gundam: Requiem for Vengeance, with leaderboards resetting each week.
“Look North World specializes in creating premium, interactive experiences that align with what’s currently driving culture. Bandai Namco has raised the bar with Gundam: Requiem for Vengeance, and we’ve captured the spirit of the show to create an experience that puts gamers on the battlefield. The experience is available for free in Fortnite, where gamers already love to play. Choose your faction, and we’ll see you on the scoreboard,” said Alex Seropian, Founder and CEO of Look North World.
“The Gundam series has the most loyal fans, and we’re on a mission to deliver them fresh entertainment and experiences. We’re grateful for the extremely positive reception to Gundam: Requiem for Vengeance, and we’re excited to let fans recreate the experience in Fortnite with fast-paced faction combat in GUNDAM: REQUIEM FOR VENGEANCE RED VS BLUE.” said Karim Farghaly, Senior Vice President of corporate development for Bandai Namco Entertainment America Inc. “We’re proud of what we’ve created by collaborating with Look North World, and we look forward to seeing players square off against each other in Fortnite’s very own Gundam battlefield.”
GUNDAM: REQUIEM FOR VENGEANCE RED VS BLUE is available to play now by entering the Fortnite Creative Island code 7089-7797-5952
As part of an ongoing initiative for the GUNDAM Metaverse, GUNDAM: REQUIEM FOR VENGEANCE RED VS BLUE is one of the first major projects based on user-generated content that delivers an incredible dive into the world of Mobile Suit Gundam.

Players can try out Monster Mop Up and Kaya’s Prophecy on November 18
Bristol, United Kingdom — November 18, 2024| After this year’s success with The Holy Gosh Darn and Dungeons and Degenerate Gamblers, Yogscast Games is thrilled to announce that two new titles will be available to playtest towards the end of this month. Jérémie & Thibaut’s tribal deck-and-village-builder, Kaya’s Prophecy, joins Terahard’s creature-collecting cleaning sim Monster Mop Up in this opportunity for an early look at the publisher’s upcoming titles. Players are invited to head over to Monster Mop Upand Kaya’s Prophecy’s respectivestore pages and hit ‘Request access’ to try them out for themselves.
For those who have dreamed of appeasing a power-hungry leader while building their own tribe, then Kaya’s Prophecy is the answer to their twisted prayers. For the first time, players can have a go at hunting, gathering and building day and night – to the catchy beat of the tam tams – as they fight for the survival of their village. Protect the townsfolk from foes with a carefully crafted deck, and keep them out of the cruel hands of the village master. Players must exercise caution – if they fail, your poor townsfolk may end up poisoned, electrocuted, or even turned upside down!
Unlike these fearsome tribal attackers, the creatures encountered in Monster Mop Up are incredibly cute – though messy. As Custodian of the Ministry of Monster Concealment, it’s up to players to keep the rowdy Ragamuffins away from the human world. Rescue the adorable little rascals and mop up any trace of them – yes, that includes their poop. In fact, especially their poop. Plus, for the first time, players can flush with friends thanks to Monster Mop Up’s multiplayer mode.
