Game Modes

There are four playable modes in GUNDAM EVOLUTION--the three types of matches and a practice mode.

■ Ranked Match

A mode where your rating, which reflects your skill, is affected by match results and determines your rank.
The goal for each season (about 2 months long) is to aim for higher ranks. Requirements must be met in order to play.  

■ Casual Match

Enjoy GUNDAM EVOLUTION without affecting your rating. Anyone can join these matches.

■ Custom Match

A player can create a room and customize the players and map.
There must be at least one player on each team to play.  

■ Practice

Learn basic controls and unit abilities in a practice range for solo play.

Season 1 Ranked Matches

■Rating and Rank

  In Ranked Matches, Rating, which reflects a player's ability, fluctuates according to match results and determines your Rank.

  There are seven ranks from Bronze to Newtype, and there are subdivisions within ranks (Ⅰ-Ⅳ) known as tiers.

Anyone who reaches Master Rank will only show their rating, and the top 600 players will achieve the Newtype rank.
*There may be a slight delay updating ratings such as Newtype and actual rank.

■ Ranked Rewards & Season Reset

At the start of a new season, players will receive rewards and titles based on the previous season's final rank and tier.

Ranks are reset for new seasons, and players will restart from a rank based on the previous season's results.

■ Ranked Match Requirements

To join a ranked match, one of the following must be met.

  • Player Level 20 has been reached.
  • A Season Pass has been upgraded to a Premium Pass during the running season.

To celebrate the start of Season 1, a Bonus EXP event will be held for all matchmaking games.
