■ Episode 5 PV & Summary Released!
Episode 5 Summary
Remnants of the Principality of Zeon have reformed as the Republic of Zeon and continue fighting on Earth 7 months after the end of the One Year War. Daryl, the pilot of the miracle mobile suit PSYCHO ZAKU that annihilated the Moore Brotherhood fleet in the Thunderbolt Sector, descends to Earth after losing PSYCHO ZAKU near the end of the war. There, he assumes an intelligence position to investigate the South Seas Alliance, a military party within the Federation.
Meanwhile, Io, who fought against Daryl in a life or death struggle, is selected as the pilot of the prototype mobile suit Atlas Gundam and heads to Earth. Australia, which retains the after-effects of the fall of the colony, is surrounded by the South Seas which is now the new battleground…
■ Introducing New Mobile Suits and Characters!
RX-78AL Atlas Gundam
The prototype mobile suit deployed to the MS forces on the Earth Federation Forces assault carrier Spartan. Colonel Monica Humphrey prepared the suit as a part of a confidential operation.
The suit was developed with an abundant investment from Moore Brotherhood. It is fitted with Sub Legs, an all-purpose support equipment used under gravity, and exclusive armaments such as rail guns. It also collects data during combat. Underwater combat was also considered; it’s designed with ball-joints with technology from underwater mobile suits to reduce underwater drag.
Io Fleming pilots this suit.
MSM-04 Acguy
An amphibious mobile suit of the Principality of Zeon. The main force behind the Daryl Lorenz platoon. A special angular skull emblem marking was applied on the right chest of Daryl’s suit thanks to mechanics. Additionally, Daryl’s platoon suit is planned to be even smaller than the conventional Acguy.
The equipment in its head and arms are fitted to be able to transform; its head has a sensor unit while its arms are fitted with a flamethrower and several armaments as options.
Daryl Lorenz and others pilot this suit.

A member of the Earth Federation Forces. Ranked a second lieutenant. The female pilot of the Guncannon Aqua deployed to Spartan.
