Greetings, Admiral!


We’re here with a briefing on an all-new dimension, a world-within… [Elysium], a parallel space full of mysteries yet to be revealed. Fragments of this unpredictable chaotic dimension will be introduced to Gunship Battle: Total Warfare in our November update.


[The Beginning of Elysium]


The 55th Expeditionary Detachment, also known as the Valkyrie Carrier Group, a specialized force tasked with carrying out the New World Armada's special missions, detects a space-time abnormality that runs parallel with that of our own, an environment similar to that of Earth.

Though unstable, the Armada were able to splice, initiate a rend that temporarily bound the continuum, opening a portal between the two realities.


Regaining their bearings and traversing a dark, and savagely violent ocean, the Armada discovered artificial, seemingly manmade structures with remarkable technological capabilities, which they named 'Elysium.'


From this newly established base of operations within Elysium, the Armada immediately went to work, researching ways to reactivate the Phase Gate, which if successful, would allow them to travel to any location desired, across multiple dimensions.


Despite the tireless, unyielding effort, the results of the experiments were unstable at best and extraordinarily dangerous.  The failed attempts weren’t without merit. The Armada engineers identified the existence of an unfamiliar power source. However, obtaining the material data needed to harness the power of this new Element proved remarkably elusive, and eventually, near impossible. Unlocking the power of this new element, what the Armada calls ‘Dark Krystal’, will require a level of technical capacity that eludes their capabilities. 


To overcome the limitations of their research, the Armada began to relay the location of Elysium across every form of broad-spectrum communication, alerting all parties to the existence of Elysium. Their plan worked; the broadcast successfully reached every corner of the Allied force-controlled territories, and they were listening.  


Alliances were eager to obtain the Dark Krystal from Elysium, and this fevered quest for power soon escalated into a series of conflicts among the Alliances.


[Message from Olivia]


Hello, Admiral.

This is Olivia.

Clancy Johnson, the founder of the world's most renowned military weaponry research institute, APEX WORKS Inc., has paid us a visit.
 It was quite a surprise that the founder himself reached out, but the news he delivered was even more astonishing.

APEX WORKS has recently obtained technical data of great importance.
By conducting research and gathering core intel on the Valkyrie, they have found a way to extract the process that the Valkyrie's technology used to alter the space-time continuum…what we call Phase-Shifted Space.
Through this research, APEX WORKS has recreated the technology needed to trigger a Phase-Shift Space event.

From this space, they have been able to obtain a new resource element called 'Dark Krystal'. Highly confidential Research has proven that this resource enables significant technological advancements and is most likely what the Valkyrie’s power derives from.  

However, Johnson has also mentioned that this Phase-Shifted Space is extraordinarily unstable, and in order to stabilize this core technology, more ‘Dark Krystal’ is needed. 

APEX WORKS has proposed a deal - we will provide them with Dark Krystal, and in return, they will produce and supply us with bleeding-edge 6th Generation Fighters. 

This proposal suggests that securing these resources will be no simple task.
Additionally, APEX WORKS seems to be in contact with other organizations, it is uncertain to what extent we can trust them.

Regardless of what the circumstances may be, if what APEX WORKS has disclosed about the new technology is true, we can most definitely expect a rapid change in the geopolitical landscape.
Instead of setting off on some halfcocked, clandestine suicide mission, seeking cooperation with other Alliances seems like a better plan.

However...
The unsettling thought that APEX WORKS may be dealing with the Armada keeps recurring to me; that is a reality I would like to avoid at all costs.


[The True Ruler of The Elysium]


They’re Called Legends for a Reason!


Alliances will battle each other for control over Elysium.

Now, as the fight for power over Elysium begins, experience the thrill of becoming a legend alongside your Alliance members.

Other Alliances will also join the battle to control Elysium, but we have no doubt that you will defeat them all and establish yourselves as the True Ruler of Elysium.

With this, we have shared a brief introduction to the new Alliance v Alliance content, Elysium.
There is still much of Elysium to uncover; more details will soon be shared so please stay tuned for what’s to come!

The team is very excited to bring our Admirals a whole new, parallel world to Gunship Battle: Total Warfare.
And though new content of this magnitude may come with its fair share of hiccups and balance adjustments, we’re going to be diligent in doing everything necessary to listen, update and bring the best possible content to you.   

※ The content development and schedule listed above is not final. The content is in the planning stages and is subject to change.
