Bandai Namco is hosting a limited-time Gundam VR experience in Japan

From August to October

Japan loves VR, and you can’t get more Japanese than VR Gundam.

Naturally, Bandai Namco knows this, so they’re introducing a mobile suit experience at the VR Zone location in Tokyo. It’ll cost you 1,000 yen (roughly $10) for eight minutes, placing you in a situation where a life-sized Gundam is battling before your human-sized eyes (lest you decide to swap perspectives into the hand of a mobile suit). Force feedback will also be a thing.

While it would have been way cooler to actually control a Gundam (possibly starting on a planet before being thrusted into space), especially for the pricepoint, I’d probably try this once.
