Gundam Song Covers 3 is a cover album by Hiroko Moriguchi, released by Sonic Blade on March 9, 2022. The sequel to 2019's Gundam Song Covers and 2020's Gundam Song Covers 2, the album features Moriguchi's versions of 11 popular Gundam theme songs originally recorded by male vocalists. Musicians collaborating with Moriguchi in the album include pianist Kotaro Oshio, violinist Naoko Terai, Japanese choir VOJA, singer-songwriter Mami Ayukawa, guitarist Masayoshi Ōishi, Wagakki Band shakuhachi player Daisuke Kaminaga, pop duo Salt & Sugar, and rock band TM Network.[1] The album cover, illustrated by Tsukasa Kotobuki, features Moriguchi cosplaying as Sayla Mass, with the RX-78-02 Gundam in the background.[2][3][4][5]

The album is offered in CD only and CD with Blu-ray. In addition, two limited edition releases were offered. The first one was an LP-sized jacket with original stickers and an advanced lottery serial code to purchase a ticket to Moriguchi's "Starry People" concert at Hitomi Memorial Hall on May 3, 2022. The second limited release included a High Grade Universal Century 1/144 scale MSZ-006 Zeta Gundam Ver. Hiroko Moriguchi model kit. Fans who preordered the album received an A4-sized clear file and an illustrated box to store all three Gundam Song Covers CDs.[2][5]

Upon its release, Gundam Song Covers 3 peaked at No. 3 on Oricon's Weekly Album Ranking on March 13, 2022.[6]
