Bonus Area Missions in DLC 1
Buying the DLC 1 & 2 Set doesn’t just give you access to Contract from the Darkness. It also unlocks bonus Area Missions that bring back original units from past SRW titles. These missions let you recruit:
Xelguard (from SRW X)
Tyranado (from SRW T)
Tyranado Rex (from SRW T)
Each mission features dialogue choices to decide which pilot becomes the main character, with the others assigned as sub-pilots. This makes replaying these missions worthwhile, since you can explore different setups and story outcomes depending on who you choose.
Tips for Using DLC 1 Content
Big O – Treat it as a tank unit. Its high durability makes it perfect for the frontlines, but manage EN carefully to avoid draining it with strong finishers.
Braiger – Balanced and versatile, good for filling gaps in your roster early on.
Kamen Rider Units – Faster and smaller than super robots, but capable of delivering high-damage attacks when positioned well. Great for mobility and support.
Original Units – Xelguard and Tyranado bring strong all-round performance and are valuable early unlocks if you pick up the set.

With The Big O returning, Galaxy Cyclone Braiger making a comeback, and Kamen Riders debuting in the tactical series, this pack broadens both gameplay and fan appeal. It also connects past SRW originals, rewarding long-time fans with classic units.
