A teaser visual has been released for the Mobile Suit Gundam Iron-Blooded Orphans Urdr-Hunt anime.
The visual was released on the same day that the Iron-Blooded Orphans G app, which includes the Mobile Suit Gundam Iron-Blooded Orphans spin-off game that the anime is based on, shut down (January 11 JST). The show was announced in November 2023.
The Urdr-Hunt game featured a number of animated scenes, with the first episode being released in 2022. The animations were produced by SUNRISE BEYOND (which is merging with parent company BANDAI NAMCO Film Works this April) and had Iron-Blooded Orphans staff like director Tatsuyuki Nagai, scriptwriter Hajime Kamoshida (series composer on Urdr-Hunt), original character designer Yuu Itou, character designer Michinori Chiba, music composer Masaru Yokoyama, and mechanical designers Naohiro Washio, Kanetake Ebikawa, Ippei Gyoubu, and Kenji Teraoka involved.
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 main Iron-Blooded Orphans anime series premiered in 2015 and ended in 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.
