Freedom Wars Remastered plunges you into a dystopian future where you, a Sinner, battle monstrous Abductors to protect humanity. To bolster your combat prowess, upgrading weapons and accessories is key. This involves enhancing base stats and adding modules for various improvements. You can start upgrading early, bypassing reliance on mission rewards and enemy drops. This guide details weapon and accessory upgrades in Freedom Wars Remastered.

Weapon upgrades unlock after reaching Level 002 Code Clearance in the main story. This grants CODE 2 Sinners access to the Facility Management Function via the Personal Responsibility Portal. The Weapon Development Facility allows you to manage your weapons. Upgrading requires resources and Entitlement Points, costs reducible by enlisting a Citizen with Facility Manager Aptitude. While it might seem complex, the process is intuitive.

Before upgrading, a screen previews stat changes. The facility also lets you add Elements, experiment with Modules and Module Slots. To reach higher Grades, purchase the necessary permits from the Claim Entitlement tab in the Window of Liberty.

Early missions offer limited high-Grade weapon rewards. Zakka in The Warren sells mostly Grade 1 weapons, making upgrading crucial. A CODE 3 Exam requires higher Grade Development Facility Permits. These permits allow you to upgrade a weapon of your choice, using lower-grade mission finds to reduce your sentence and earn extra Entitlement Points.

Your 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 incentivizes gear improvement.

Finally, note that the Ability Development Facility, accessible within Facility Management, unlocks later.
