A livestream for the prequel film Mobile Suit Gundam Seed FREEDOM ZERO has unveiled a trailer confirming its theatrical debut in Japan on January 15, with a North American release scheduled for February 2027. The announcement was made during a stage greeting featuring director Mitsuo Fukuda, producer Hisakazu Naka, and voice actor Sōichirō Hoshi.
