** Initially, the player goes back and forth between two HighFantasy worlds, their homeworld being Elgaia, where most of humanity now lives after fleeing from a genocidal war in the other world, Grand Gaia, which once had prosperous nations until the aforementioned war ruined them all. The second arc of the story then takes you to Ishgria, a world full of battle-hungry demons kept chaotic because of constant warring everywhere, then the third arc takes you across a few other worlds
with Red]], WaterIsBlue, [[WindIsGreen Earth their own cultures: the first used to be [[TechnoWreckage a technologically advanced place until a robot went on a rampage]], the second was a feudal society that is Green,]] [[YellowLightningBlueLightning Thunder is Yellow]], much like [[{{Wutai}} ancient Japan in all but name]], and the third locked in [[SlippySlideyIceWorld an eternal ice age]].
** Exclusive to the Global version, ever since the Paradox Blossoms, there have been vague mentions of some world Zeruiah lived in that Juno-Seto arrived and Ensa-Taya invaded, with more information about this world given through related Units and full-blown multiple Grand Quests that shed light on this now-named world, Aimyhr, with even Grand Quests that take place long after the Void's invasion. There are other Grand Quests and Unit batches that take place in their own worlds, [[spoiler:which are then all tied by one Grand Quest where the Summoner meets a few characters from these worlds, like the

** The Battle Maidens, the Soul Bound Saga units, and 2 of the 3 Christmas units are all borrowed directly from ''Puzzle Trooper'', another mobile game developed by A-lim. They've been given different names, but otherwise they remain identical to their ''Puzzle Trooper'' counterparts.
** As of 2018, Global has also had a Fairy Tail collaboration, along with multiple crossovers events with Brave Frontier Europe

You play as a [[TheChosenOne Summoner]] chosen by the God of the Gate, [[BigGood Lucius]], to defeat the [[GodIsEvil Four Fallen Gods]], starting with Maxwell the Fallen Creator. Having up to five units in a squad (with one more provided from a friend), you battle against a series of enemies and undergo Quests as you travel through each world. Along the way you can summon or capture more units, gather resources such as [[FictionalCurrency Zel and Karma]], and acquire [[DesignItYourselfEquipment equipment]] called Spheres to slowly build and strengthen your own army of mighty summoned units. Towards the end of the first chapter however, it was revealed that Lucius have a [[HiddenAgendaVillain hidden agenda]] to the point that the summoner must put to an end of his plan. After he is defeated, the demons of the Ishgria then roam loose and this kickstarts the second chapter.

In the second chapter, after the real threat is defeated, the Summoner and his/her companions went into [[AnotherDimension another world]] known as Ishgria in order to stop the [[TheHorde hoards of demons]] that tries to invade Grand Gaia and save Tilith. Towards the end of the chapter, there is a massive power that looms around Ishgria and it was revealed that it belonged to one of the Divine Ten Gods, [[GodEmperor Holy Emperor Karna Masta]] that was sealed in here and it's up to the summoner to finish him off for good.

In chapter 3, despite Karna Masta being defeated by the Summoner, the Summoning Powers that were originally the curse of Karna Masta himself still existed. The power becomes unstable after Karna Masta's defeat and it's up to the Summoner to restore the Summoning Arts by defeating the sealed gods on the Another World and also prevent Karna Masta's brother from being freed from his slumber. Meanwhile, a shady organization known as the [[NebulousEvilOrganization Abel Faction]] tries to stop the Summoner and his/her companions in order to achieve their [[HiddenAgendaVillain hidden agenda]] to [[TakeOverTheWorld take over Elgaia]].

Needless to say, even if the main story mostly focused on the Summoner and his/her companions, due to a large cast, there are many stories centered around said cast. However, one of the most important stories of ''Brave Frontier'' is about the [[GreatOffscreenWar war]] between the Humans and the Gods. Even if most of the story takes place in the Great War, there are parts that also took place in other worlds such as Ishgria, Elgaia and so on. Due to this, Brave Frontier has [[Characters/BraveFrontier its own character page]] to cover their various stories.

These can be targeted and destroyed not only to disable certain attacks but also for loot of that specific part. Just take care not to kill off the core body before you do, otherwise the demon will die instantly before you take out the other parts.
