The project takes place a year after the events of Mobile Suit Gundam UC. Despite the revelation of the original charter for the Universal Century, which acknowledges the existence of Newtypes and their rights, the world remains largely unchanged.
The project will be directed by Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn director Shunichi Yoshizawa and will be animated at Sunrise Studio #1 with scripts written by Harutoshi Fukui (Mobile Suit Gundam UC). Kuniko Takahashi (Cardcaptor Sakura) is in-charge with the main character designs while Se Jun Kim (Mobile Suit Gundam Twilight AXIS) will do the character designs for animation. Other staff members include: Tomohiro Fujie (Mobile Suit Gundam Thunderbolt) as CG director, and Yoshinori Sayama (Aquarion) for "monitor design."
Mobile Suit Gundam NT is set to premiere this November 30th in Japanese cinemas.
