Gundam Side Story 0079: Rise From the Ashes is a mech-based action game developed for the Sega Dreamcast, blending first-person shooter elements with strategy gameplay. Players control Gundam suits in various missions against the Zeon army, utilizing tactics and combat skills. The game features enhanced 3-D graphics, cinematic cutscenes, and audio effects from the Gundam Wing anime series.
Step into the giant, mechanized suit of the Gundam. There, across battlefields of a war-beaten Earth, you'll command your forces against units of the Zeon army. You'll need to master every move in your suit--and weapon in your arsenal--to outflank the Zeon and complete each mission. And although you've got armored vehicles and ant-sized infantry on your side, the battle will be lost or won by your ability to jump, hover, and fly into battle while zooming in your weapons on the enemy.
A cross between first-person shooter and strategy game, Gundam Side Story 0079: Rise From the Ashes comes from a series that originated on the Sega Saturn. This title features such enhancements as detailed 3-D mobile suits, cinematic interstitial scenes, a dramatic soundtrack, and actual sound effects from the anime TV series, Gundam Wing.
