Freedom Wars Remastered plunges players into a dystopian future where they battle monstrous Abductors as Sinners. To bolster their combat capabilities, players can enhance their arsenal by upgrading weapons and accessories. This involves boosting base stats and equipping modules for various enhancements.

Early weapon upgrades are readily available, eliminating reliance on mission rewards or enemy drops. 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 comprehensive weapon management. Upgrades demand resources and Entitlement Points, but costs decrease with the assistance of Citizens, each offering varying reduction rates based on their Facility Manager Aptitude. While initially complex, the system is intuitive in practice.

A pre-upgrade screen displays stat changes. The facility also supports Element addition and Module/Module Slot experimentation. Higher Grade weapon upgrades require permits purchased from the Claim Entitlement tab in the Window of Liberty.

Early missions yield limited high-Grade weapon rewards. Zakka in The Warren offers Grade Level 1 weapons, making upgrades almost mandatory. A CODE 3 Exam necessitates higher Grade Development Facility Permits. These permits enable weapon upgrades, allowing players to focus on a single weapon, donating lower-grade finds for sentence reduction and extra Entitlement Points.

The first Weapon Development Facility upgrade unlocks the "In Search of the Strongest Weapon" trophy/achievement, with further achievements tied to the upgrade system, appealing to trophy hunters. The damage disparity between weapon Grades is substantial, incentivizing gear improvement.

Finally, the Ability Development Facility, accessible within Facility Management, unlocks later in the game.
