Developed by Anaheim Electronics, Marasai [UC] was deployed by the Titans during the Gryps Conflict, and was later by Neo Zeon Remnants. Equipped with the powerful Fedayeen Rifle, the mobile suit excels at mid-range combat and is capable of stunning enemy units with the use of the high-voltage Sea Snake.
One of the four Gundams used by Celestial Being to end war through armed intervention, Gundam Exia was developed to excel in melee combat under any conditions. The mobile suit is equipped with an arsenal of GN technology and possesses high maneuverability to dodge incoming attacks or quickly close in on enemy units.
How to Unlock Gundam Exia and Marasai [UC]
Gundam Exia and Marasai [UC] are unlockable in the PC-CNT using CP aka “Capital Points” that can be earned during gameplay. It should be noted that both units are not default playable mobile suits.
