We’ve got news on which suits receive boosts, what's changing with maps, and more!


■ Ranked Season 2: "We meet again, Gundam!” begins!

The limited-time mode “Ranked Match” pits you against other players in pursuit of Rank Points based on your results in battle.. As you earn RP, you’ll climb through the divisions, advance to new ranks, and earn a bonus through the beginning of Season 3 based on your final standing! Your RP will also earn you new mobile suits and parts.

To take your first steps into the inky void that is Bronze V, all you have to do is choose the Ranked Match game type! Once you’ve earned enough RP, you’ll be placed into a promotion match. Try it out, and unlock new rewards!
The season lasts through 5:59 AM on April 1st.
