A 23rd set of suits has been added, featuring the Federation's RX-78-6 Gundam and GM Interceptor Custom as well as Zeon's Gouf Flight Type and Action Zaku (Sniper). Unlock them for yourself!

▲ [Federation] RX-78-6 Gundam [Type: Artillery / Cost: 340 / Terrain: Land, Space]
The sixth Gundam, part of the second lot, is equipped with a hover drive for high mobility and firepower.
Equipped with weaponry like a 300mm low-recoil cannon and arm-mounted grenade launchers, as well as a custom-designed beam rifle, it's able to provide powerful support from the back lines without being affected by status effects or anti-air emplacements while still remaining effective at short ranges.

▲ [Federation] GM Interceptor Custom [Type: Assault / Cost: 300 / Terrain: Land, Space]
A customized GM variant for ace pilots. Used for fleet defense, its firepower and mobility are upgraded for interception duties, making it a natural at close-in fighting.
Its armament includes a range of grenades like percussion-fused grenades thrown in pairs and percussion-fused flash grenades which inflict flash status.

▲ [Zeon] Gouf Flight Type [Type: Assault / Cost: 340 / Terrain: Land]
Derived from the Gouf Custom, this final iteration of the H-series relied on its Gatling shield as its primary firepower.
With boost consumption reduced, and equipped with its permanent "Flight System" battle assist module which modifies its jumping behavior, it's highly maneuverable. The mobility given by its hovering capability and its capacity for enhanced jumps allow it to always take the upper hand—literally—in a fight.
A combination of the charged burst fire mode of its Gatling shield and high jumps allow it to take the initiative if its player has mastered its unique style.

▲ [Zeon] Action Zaku (Sniper) [Type: Sniper / Cost: 340 / Terrain: Land, Space]
A high-performance mobile suit developed by the top-secret Pezun Project. Its enhanced generator allows for the use of beam weapons, placing it a notch above previous Zaku II models.
Permanently equipped with the "Enhanced Generator" battle assist module, it can sacrifice its own armor to temporarily increase the power of its large beam machine gun beyond normal limits.

■ Grasp victory with new additional weapons!

Additional weapons interact with their suit in unique ways, and mastering them can often be the key to victory. They can be used regardless of the use of silver or gold plans, but some weapons require "Master Devices".
Master Devices can be earned on the battlefield on during events.

Let's look at a few weapons which require Master Devices:

▲ [Federation] Prototype Gundam [Beam Javelin (Throw)] A weapon which splits the javelin's beam tip into a more trident-like form. Focusing its energy, then throwing, creates an extremely powerful weapon which can pierce multiple enemy mobile suits.

▲ [Federation] Guncannon [240mm Cannon Howitzer (Barrage)] A rapid-fire succession of 240mm howitzer shells intended for area suppression. The shells arc onto the targeted position, allowing for an angle of attack above that which anti-air fire can counter.

▲ [Zeon] Zogock [Type L Arm Punch] A melee program which extends the chest as far as possible, allowing for a longer reach and higher power.

▲ [Zeon] Mullet's Action Zaku [Custom Heat Hawk (Dual Wield)] A dual-wielding melee style with a heat hawk in each hand. Each type has a different motion, and its melee dash can combo as well, so find the one that works best for you!
