While Japan isn't getting Gundam Battle Universe until next week, that doesn't mean you have to wait that long to sample some of the newer Mobile Suits that will be joining its epic space battles. Japan's PlayStation Store has recently unveiled a game demo that's now available for download for your PSP.

The game file will require about 20 MB of space on your PSP's memory Stick, and will feature just one stage for this upcoming game. A little short admittedly, but it should give you an idea of what to expect when your import arrives.

Gundam Battle Universe will feature, among other things, new MS including the Quebeley and the HWS variant of Amuro Ray's Nu Gundam. We've provided for a download of the game below. Enjoy your trial run, and be sure to check back in case any related updates are announced.
