Heero was recently added to the game.


** During the first month of the game, players could obtain 2-star versions of the Gundam, Wing Gundam, Amuro Ray and Heero Yuy. While nice, virtually everything but Heero has been officially released as 4-stars, making them a BraggingRightsReward.

The game features the same idea that runs through the rest of the ''Gundam Breaker'' franchise in that players can use pieces of various Mobile Suits to create their own special Gunpla to battle with. Players can choose units from virtually every major installment, from the original ''Anime/MobileSuitGundam'' all the way to the upcoming ''Anime/GundamBuildDiversReRise'', mixing and matching pieces however you like.

The change is likely due to the fact that the [[VideoGame/NewGundamBreaker sole game]] in the ''Gundam Breaker'' franchise to make it to the west was a massive flop, while the Japanese market has several successful games in the series so the brand isn't as tainted.

* CCGImportanceDissonance: Oh, boy is it present here. The ranking of various Mobile Suits seem to differ despite how good and their incredible importance. Among them:
** The original RX-78-2 Gundam, as usual, is an incredibly great unit despite being objectively the least advanced Gundam in its continuity.
** The Stark Jegan, despite being stronger than the standard Jegan and one of its most iconic moments is its one-on-one duel with the Kshatriya, is a 1-star unit while the basic Jegan is a 2-star.
** The Den'An Zon, canonically the most advanced UC suit in the game (what with being 21 years newer than any other suit included at launch) is a weak 2-star suit.

Touma starts off with a customised Buster Gundam before upgrading to the Code Phi, which is a heavily modified G-Self.

AI tends to have an AttackAttackAttack strategy that is terrible for two reasons:
** AI will, for the most part, use their EX-Attacks as soon as possible. This is actually a passable strategy for AI-controlled opponents since they have an InstantWinCondition if they defeat the player's mech. However, on the players' side, it's much less viable since it means an AI-controlled ally (or AI-controlled PC, as auto-play is an option) won't save powerful EX-Attacks for a boss and instead will waste them on mostly-dead {{mooks}} or even empty space.
** AI tends to rush headlong at an enemy. Doesn't sound so bad, but it leaves the unit completely open to just being shot as it's gradually approaching their target. This is even worse in the Arena.

* BlindIdiotTranslation: An interesting one - the English website for the game, for some odd reason, decided to translate Rindo's biography to suggest she was actually a ''he'', which lead quite a few players to wonder if she was actually a WholesomeCrossdresser. Not helping matters was that the game uses the "she" pronoun. This is what happens when you decide to take liberties on a gender-neutral pronoun.

* RainbowPimpGear: Downplayed, as players can color their units with the color scheme of any complete Gunpla they've collected. However, this is imperfect as color schemes rarely are applied in a predictable manner (especially on the rarer or more exotic parts) and mixing and matching color schemes results in garish clashes.

* AllegedlyFreeGame: Like many Bandai Namco games, the game is free to download ''and'' play, but the game is silly with the Haro Chips, the premium currency needed to roll for the more iconic units. That being said, the game isn't ''that'' cruel and gives you a single free roll every 24 hours on its two unit gacha pulls and a free ten-pull on its Friend Point pull. As well, players can obtain up to 12 free single-pull tickets a month to use how they see fit.

* AllYourPowersCombined: Like with other ''Gundam Breaker'' games, you can combine various aspects of suits to get awesome abilities and attacks. As well, getting five parts with a certain tag will activate a bonus that makes you stronger.
* ColorCodedItemTiers: The game's five tiers are represented with colors: White (1-star), Green (2-star), Blue (3-star), Purple (4-star) and Gold (5-star)
* DiskOneNuke: The Gundam Artemis. Obtained as an achievement or as a random drop in the Friend Points gasha, the parts have amazing stats for a 2-star unit.
* FaceHeelTurn: Touma. This is even signified by changing his machine to the Code Phi, a G-Self pained darker and made demonic
* JokeCharacter: 1-star units, as they are the weakest of the group, they end up becoming this. They only reach level 10 and Rank 4 for stats and most people just ignore them for better machines. Of course, since these parts can be evolved into 5-stars, these can evolve into a LethalJokeCharacter.
* NoNameGiven: The main character. Oh, sure, you can give him any old name, but he has no canonical name. He's just "The Protagonist".
* NoodleIncident: Something happened prior to the main character joining the Gunpla Club that caused Rindo to quit the team and drive other people from it. Whatever happened, she ends up making amends partway through.
* TheRival: Touma. He TakesALevelInJerkass once he changes schools so he can go into Gunpla Battling professionally and this switch is signified by him changing units.
