SD Gundam Battle Alliance from Bandai Namco Entertainment released last year for all consoles and PC platforms. I enjoyed it quite a bit despite its issues. Read my Xbox Series X review here and Nintendo Switch review here. Today, Bandai Namco Entertainment revealed the SD Gundam Battle Alliance version 1.40 update patch notes ahead of the Witch From Mercury DLC release date which is May 11. This update arrives beginning May 10 so it might be live when you read this news story.
