After this episode, a new arc will kick off in 2017 that covers the Battle of Loum.
The feature open in Japanese theaters on November 19. Fifteen theaters will screen the OVA in a two-week engagement. Much like previous showings, fans will be able to buy a collector’s edition of the episode’s Blu-Ray release at the theater. A standard edition will ship to Japanese retailers on December 9.
Last month, the GundamInfo YouTube channel updated with both a dubbed and subtitled trailer for the episode, which you can check out below:
