Mobile Suit Gundam Iron-Blooded Orphans‘ Urdr-Hunt spin-off, which currently takes the form of a mobile game with animated cutscenes, will be getting an “animation video” project. A special announcement trailer has been revealed, although the exact format of the anime is currently a mystery.
The Mobile Suit Gundam Iron-Blooded Orphans Urdr-Hunt game is distributed as part of the Mobile Suit Gundam Iron-Blooded Orphans G smartphone app, with its first episode being released in 2022. The animated scenes in Urdr Hunt feature the involvement of Iron-Blooded Orphans staff members like director Tatsuyuki Nagai, scriptwriter Hajime Kamoshida (now series composer), original character designer Yuu Itou, character designer Michinori Chiba, music composer Masaru Yokoyama, and background art studio Kusanagi, along with mechanical designers Naohiro Washio, Kanetake Ebikawa, Ippei Gyōbu, and Kenji Teraoka.
On October 31 of this year, it was announced that the Iron-Blooded Orphans G app would cease operations on January 11, 2024.
The Gundam Wiki describes Urdr Hunt‘s plot as:
It is the year P.D. 323. Gjallarhorn’s political interference in Arbrau escalated into an armed conflict and came to an end thanks to Tekkadan.
News of Tekkadan’s exploits has also reached the ears of Wistario Afam, a young man born and raised at the Radonitsa Colony near Venus. Venus, which lost to Mars in the initial contest for colony development, is a remote planet in which the four economic blocs have little interest. It is now used as a penal colony for criminals, whose inhabitants don’t even have IDs.
Wistario, who hopes to change the status quo of his homeland, encounters a girl who claims to be the guide to the “Urdr-Hunt”.
The Iron-Blooded Orphans anime series premiered in 2015 and ran until 2017 with two seasons. Netflix describes the show as:
On a terraformed post-disaster Mars, a group of child security agents rebel against the adults who betrayed them and the oppressive Earth government.
