Update 6:50 a.m.: These are some of the systems that were available in the closed alpha test Famtisu played:
Boost Dive
An action where you fall at high speed from an airborne state, which triggering cancels all of your actions. Since you can land instantly, you can shift the timing of your landing and reduce openings after using a weapon.
Striker Select
Strikers are allies that you can select and call upon at any time. During the closed alpha test, players were able to select two from three Strikers for each Mobile Suit. As time passes, your Striker Gauge will build up, allowing you to call upon your Striker. Screenshots in the magazine show GM, Ball, and Thunderbolt GM appear as Strikers.
Awakening System
You can choose from two types of gears, “Blaze Gear” and “Lightning Gear.” Blaze Gear is an instantaneous-type awakening. When triggered, it has effects such as increasing your melee combat following ability. Lightning Gear is a continuation-type awakening. When triggered, it has effects such as increasing your lock-on range.
Thanks, Hachima Kikou.
