An August 21 broadcast date was announced for the Gundam Build Fighters Try Island Wars special TV episode last month, and English-speaking audiences can now look forward to watching, as well. The special will stream with English subtitles for free for a limited time on the Gundam.Info portal starting August 21, streamable on PCs and smartphones.

Here's the promo from July:

Synopsis:

The Try Fighters team have been invited to the Nielsen Labs on a tropical island, as test pilots for Yajima Trading's new battle system. However, due to bugs in the new system, they find themselves on standby at the lodging facilities.

As they wait expectantly at the resort-like lodging facilities, Sekai and the others encounter the trio of Shia, Minato, and Gyanko, who have also been invited as test pilots. And a puzzling mystery awaits the rivals who have been reunited on the tropical island...

Now the Try Fighters face their biggest challenge!
