The video, starring producer Sho Hamanaga, focuses on the upcoming update that will launch tomorrow, May 19.
The update will bring back Frontier Mode with plenty of changes, which you can read at the bottom of the video.
A free Battle Pass will also be added, allowing players to earn a variety of items over a period of 90 days by earning Battle Points in Frontier mode. A paid Premium Pass will be added at a later time.
Among the items you can earn in the Battle Pass, there are transmog items, which allow you to change your TSF’s appearance without touching its abilities.
An in-game shop will also appear, with paid items including emblems, Transmogs, and Weapon Transfer (Save/Deploy) Tickets.
Frontier Mode Changes

This graph is shared between all players. When Phase progression reaches 100%, a countdown will begin, and when it reaches zero, the balance of power will determine the outcome of the Potentiality. In some cases, the BETA may become stronger, and in others, the Potentiality may come to an immediate end.Changed conditions for Key Missions to appear and removed [Secret] and [Top Secret] Key Missions.Adjusted the BETA invasion level system to incorporate the Faction Power GraphAdded Ending MissionsAdjusted the flow of game time within Potentialities.Added a setting to determine which Tactical Surface Fighters drop during battle.Added new difficulty above Mission Level 70.Allowed 360 degree cursor freedom when using a gamepad on the map.Added new R&D missions└F-14 Tomcat└F-15E Strike Eagle└Type 97 Fubuki Training Unit└Type 94 Shiranui└Type-00R Takemikazuchi [Shogun]└Type-00A Takemikazuchi [Tozama]・Adjusted the turn-in items and number of items required for TSF research.
