Over the years, the Gundam franchise has introduced many a fan to catchy Japanese tunes. Primarily used during the intros of the various anime shows, loads of different songs have become synonymous with Gundam as a whole, and as such, these tunes are sometimes placed directly into Gundam video games as part of the soundtrack.
However, there have been instances in the past where these tracks don't make it into the Western versions of the games due to licensing issues. It may seem like a small detail, but it's still a bit of a downer for hardcore fans who live outside of Japan.
Fortunately, this won't be the case with Gundam Versus, which happens to feature a ton of anime music. In an interview with Bandai Namco, the publisher told us that the same soundtrack will be used in all versions of the game, regardless of region. Good to hear.

YES!!! Best news of the day for me. EXVS Force had its soundtrack untouched when it came to the west, so maybe this was expected. But with a confirmation, now I can finally place my pre-order while I listen to "Char ga kuru"
Oh Hellz yea!!! I mean heck we could have maid our playlist own but this is still awesome news!!!
thank goodness, it's really disappointing when we don't get the OG music in anime games
@hkazub Actually that song is only in the japan exclusive G sound edition not the regular version http://gematsu.com/2017/04/gundam-versus-japanese-premium-g-sound-edition-song-list-announced-new-screenshots
@assassingriskell Yeah, just saw it. But I'm still fine with Uchuu no Judau, Daybreak's Bell and Rhythm Emotion
We aren't getting the premium sound edition though. It's true that every region has the same soundtrack, but that's just the standard one that doesn't have anime songs.
I wasn't aware until recently how often licensed stuff gets dumped in different regions, totally sucks.
Is this game is PVP only? I think there was an official tournament held not long ago.
@WanderingBullet No it's not PVP only, it has a single player mode too
@FullbringIchigo Thanks. Guess I'll give the open beta a go when it starts.
