Freedom Wars Remastered plunges players into an action-packed dystopian future where they, as Sinners, battle monstrous Abductors to protect humanity. A key to survival is enhancing your combat prowess by upgrading your weapons and accessories. This involves boosting their base stats and integrating modules for additional enhancements.

The beauty of Freedom Wars Remastered is that players can start upgrading their weapons early in the game, without having to depend solely on mission rewards or enemy drops. This guide dives into the details on how to upgrade your weapons and accessories in Freedom Wars Remastered.

How To Upgrade Weapons In Freedom Wars Remastered

Upgrading your weapons in Freedom Wars Remastered is a straightforward process once you reach Level 002 Code Clearance in the main story. At this point, CODE 2 Sinners unlock the Facility Management Function through the Personal Responsibility Portal. Navigate to the Weapon Development Facility to manage and upgrade your arsenal.

Upgrading requires specific resources and Entitlement Points, but you can lower the cost by collaborating with Citizens. Different Citizens provide varying reduction rates based on their Facility Manager Aptitude, making the system easy to grasp once you dive in.

Before you commit to an upgrade, you'll be shown a preview of your weapon's new stats. The Weapon Development Facility also lets you add Elements and experiment with Modules and Module Slots. To take your weapon to a higher Grade, purchase the necessary permit from the Claim Entitlement tab on the Window of Liberty.

Should You Upgrade Weapons In Freedom Wars Remastered?

In the early stages of the main story, missions don't typically yield high-Grade weapons. While you can buy weapons and combat items from Zakka in The Warren, most are capped at Grade Level 1, making upgrading a necessity. One of your CODE 3 Exams involves securing higher Grade Development Facility Permits, allowing you to upgrade any weapon to your preference and keep it, while donating lower-grade finds from missions to reduce your sentence and earn additional Entitlement Points.

The first upgrade in the Weapon Development Facility not only enhances your weapon but also unlocks the "In Search of the Strongest Weapon" trophy/achievement, with further achievements linked to the upgrading system, appealing to trophy hunters. The substantial damage difference between weapons of different Grades incentivizes players to invest time in improving their gear.

Later in the game, players can also access the Ability Development Facility within Facility Management, unlocking even more ways to strengthen your character.
