Freedom Wars Remastered plunges players into a dystopian future where Sinners battle monstrous Abductors to safeguard humanity. To bolster their combat prowess, players can upgrade weapons and accessories, enhancing base stats and adding modules for various buffs. This process is accessible early in the game, providing a significant advantage over relying solely on mission rewards. This guide details weapon and accessory upgrades in Freedom Wars Remastered.

Weapon upgrades become available after reaching Level 002 Code Clearance in the main storyline. CODE 2 Sinners then access the Facility Management Function via the Personal Responsibility Portal. The Weapon Development Facility allows for weapon management and upgrading, requiring resources and Entitlement Points. Citizen assistance can reduce upgrade costs, with varying reduction rates depending on their Facility Manager Aptitude. While seemingly complex, the system is intuitive in practice.

A pre-upgrade screen displays stat changes. The facility also enables Element addition and Module/Module Slot experimentation. Upgrading to higher Grades necessitates purchasing permits from the Claim Entitlement tab in the Window of Liberty.

Early missions yield limited high-Grade weapons. While Zakka in The Warren sells weapons (mostly Grade 1), upgrading becomes crucial. A CODE 3 Exam requires higher Grade Development Facility Permits, allowing weapon upgrades and the donation of Low-Grade weapons for sentence reduction and additional Entitlement Points.

The first Weapon Development Facility upgrade unlocks the "In Search of the Strongest Weapon" trophy/achievement, with further achievements tied to the system. The significant damage difference between Grades encourages gear improvement. The Ability Development Facility, part of Facility Management, unlocks later.
