Gundam x Hatsune Miku collaboration first event announced

A “special collaboration project” between Gundam and Hatsune Miku was recently announced as part of the Gundam series 45th anniversary celebrations.

The details of the first event in the collaboration have now been confirmed – with Miku set to appear in a live concert in the “Gundam Metaverse”, a virtual space where Gundam fans from all over the world can gather and experience a variety of content.

A new promotional image has been launched featuring an original illustration by Mai Okuma and a teaser image showing Miku in the world of “Gundam Metaverse” has also been released.

The “Gundam Metaverse” will be open to users from Japan and the USA, with Japan users being able to access it from Thursday, December 5, 2024 11:00 JST to Monday, December 9, 2024 15:00 JST.

Users in the USA will be able to access the “Gundam Metaverse” from the 4th of December 2024 at 18:00 PST until the 8th of December at 10:00 PST.

A “Gundam Metaverse” official website has been launched today, which will be updated with more details as the event nears.

A teaser trailer has also been released for the event – which features an appearance from Hatsune Miku herself at the end:

Users who plan to access the “Gundam Metaverse” can pre-register for access from now until the 3rd of December via the official website.

By pre-registering, you will automatically be entered into a prize draw where you could win one of 200 prizes including Gunpla and a special Gundam x Miku “Happi” festival style coat.

The Gundam x Miku “Gundam Metaverse Live” will be free to attend, with specific timings for the live to be announced shortly.

As with many livestreamed events, if you miss the first live it will likely be possible to replay/access it again at intervals during the event.

The “Gundam Metaverse” event will also feature a store that will be selling special Gundam x Hatsune Miku collaboration goods to users in Japan and the USA.

Those planning to attend the event will also get the chance to experience a host of other Gundam related content, such as an updated main lobby in comparison to previous “Gundam Metaverse” events as well as a Gunpla exhibit.

The “Gundam Metaverse” Gunpla exhibit will show the winning works of the GUNPLA BUILDERS WORLD CUP which have been digitally scanned and can be viewed in the metaverse.

Stay tuned for further updates as more info regarding the Hatsune Miku “Gundam Metaverse” LIVE are set to be announced soon, such as the start time and we can also expect some of the collaboration goods to be shown prior to the event.
