The Core Zone unlocks only after both the Deck Zone and Storage Zone have been cleared. Battles in each area feature different Bounty Goals. Selecting a Bounty Goal applies varying effects to the battlefield. Clearing an area after selecting Bounty Goals that meet specific score thresholds grants generous rewards provided by Doll Trading, including S-Grade crossover pilot Shinji x1, S-Grade REV-01 ST parts x1, Light Core Upgrade Kit x1, and Heavy Core Upgrade Kit x1, as well as Recruit Vouchers, Transit Vouchers, Solid Arashium, and more.
