At the heart of this anniversary celebration is Surface Beta, a brand-new, large-scale battle mode that sets the stage for the most anticipated battle campaign in the game so far. Alongside this storyline, players can look forward to new characters and special limited-time events to celebrate the three years of global success.

The Commanders are plunged into a high-stakes narrative: the delicate balance has been broken, and the Rapture Queen has returned to wage the final war on Earth. Triggered by Liberalio’s scheme, Nayuta steps forward to rally the Pioneer Squad and join forces with Eden in a last stand against the incoming onslaught of evil.
