Mobile Suit Gundam – Encounters in Space is a single-player video game for PlayStation 2 that immerses players in significant battles between the Earth Federation and the Principality of Zeon during and after the One Year War. Covering a four-year timeline, the game offers a series of episodic missions that highlight crucial events in the Gundam franchise.
Rather than tell a single continuous story, the single-player game in Encounters in Space is broken up into a few short vignettes that take place over the course of four years. These vignettes are accounts of several significant battles during and after the One Year War between the Earth Federation and the Principality of Zeon.
