Freedom Wars Remastered plunges players into a dystopian future where they battle monstrous Abductors as Sinners. To bolster their combat capabilities, players can upgrade weapons and accessories, enhancing base stats and adding performance-boosting modules. This guide details weapon and accessory upgrades in Freedom Wars Remastered.

How To Upgrade Weapons In Freedom Wars Remastered

Weapon upgrades become available upon reaching Level 002 Code Clearance in the main storyline. CODE 2 Sinners then access the Facility Management Function via the Personal Responsibility Portal. The Weapon Development Facility allows for comprehensive weapon management. Upgrades require resources and Entitlement Points, costs that can be reduced by employing a Citizen with Facility Manager Aptitude. The process is intuitive despite its initial complexity.

A pre-upgrade screen displays stat changes. The facility also enables Element addition and Module/Module Slot experimentation. Higher Grade weapon upgrades necessitate permits purchased from the Claim Entitlement tab in the Window of Liberty.

Early-game missions yield limited high-Grade weapons. While Zakka in The Warren sells weapons (mostly Grade 1), upgrading becomes almost mandatory. A CODE 3 Exam requires obtaining higher Grade Development Facility Permits. These permits allow focused weapon upgrades, with surplus Low-Grade weapons contributing to sentence reduction and additional Entitlement Points.

The first Weapon Development Facility upgrade unlocks the "In Search of the Strongest Weapon" trophy/achievement, with further achievements linked to the upgrade system. The substantial damage difference between Grades strongly incentivizes gear improvement.

The Ability Development Facility, accessible within Facility Management, unlocks later in the game.
