News: Gundam Extreme Versus Boss voiced by Gackt

The upcoming Gundam Extreme Versus is not only getting an opening song from Linkin Park but it’s also getting Gackt to take the role of the game’s main villain called “ex” (piloting the new Extreme Gundam, obviously). Gackt has a pretty long history of being a publicly vocal Gundam fan. From the somewhat surreal music videos of him piloting an RX-178 Gundam Mark.II for the Zeta Gundam films, to the opening song of the last Gundam Versus game (which was a cover of the classic Ai Senshi no less). Gackt also does some pretty cool impersonations of Toru Furuya (Amuro Rey) and Shuichi Ikeda (Char Aznable) amongst many others. One nice comment he’s made a few times was that when he went out drinking with the two actors he’d close his eyes and imagine that Amuro and Char were haggling over what beer to get. In any case, it’s kinda nice that such a nerdy fan of the original show has finally been given his own character.

Oh Gackt. You are much cooler when you don’t position yourself as an immortal vampire like persona and instead a Mobile Suit pilot.
(Or Ex-Shinra soldiers…)

What’s next? A SRW OG character based on Gackt?

Have to say the still of it there is pretty imposing, kinda hope it’s playable myself…
