Starting on the 29th of November, servers entering the 6th week of the S2 off-season can experience the Overlord Gorilla.
You need to be at least HQ level 27 to experience this feature.

The encounter with a baby gorilla
The adventure of the Overlord Gorilla has started, it’s up to us to rescue, train, develop and deploy the mighty creature.
Among the radar missions you will find “A Special rescue” mission that has as an icon the face of a gorilla, where a baby gorilla is waiting for your help: complete the mission.
Once the first mission has been completed, a new mission “Unexpected discovery” with the same gorilla face icon appears, click on it to execute it to discover a gorilla laying in the field.
Now you can go back to your base to place the Overlord Base and access the platform to rescue the Gorilla.
The Overlord’s Rescue
The new building allows you to access the platform to rescue and train the Gorilla
The Gorilla Overlord has suffered serious battle wounds and urgently needs care!
Provide water, food, and medicine to help it recover strength.
You can find these supplies by:
- Exclusive supply radar tasks, which appear 3 times daily, up to 10 times in total.
- The baby gorilla will also go out to gather supplies everyday bringing them back to the base entrance. (Note: Once the Overlord is fully healed, these supply methods will no longer be available.)
Let’s work together to restore the Gorilla Overlord’s health!
Radar missions with the white heart icon.

Overlord’s Training
Once the Overlord Gorilla promotion was successful a new building becomes available: The Tactical Institute.
This building will generate Training Guidebooks 
for Gorilla training.
The fourth day, as soon as you complete the promotion, you will be able to start also the training.
The Overlord’s base, when entered, now shows 2 sections: Overview and Training.
Overview
In this section you can do many things, even if most are locked at the beginning
- Give a name to the Overlord Gorilla
- View current attributes
- Level up skills to boost Overlord’s power strength.
If you click on the red flag on the top left it will tell you that you need to reach Bond Rating “Rookie Partner I” to deploy the Overlord in your squad, so let’s train him.
IMPORTANT BEFORE YOU START TRAINING:
The use of Overlord’s items to train him will give points in the Alliance Duel VS on Friday, so don’t rush on using them unless it’s Friday. I will update the corresponding Alliance Duel VS detail page once the first Friday happens in early servers.
Train
The second section of the Overlord’s Base allows us to train the Gorilla.
To train the Gorilla it takes time, it cannot be done right away, and we need some items, see Overlord Training Items for how to purchase/obtain them:
Training certificate- Training guidebook (Additionally the Tactical Institute will generate Training Guidebooks in time.)
Bond Badge
Clicking on Promotion Rating you can see the effect of the promotion. In this case the promotion is gated by the specialized tradings reaching level 50
Specialized Training
There are 3 types of specialized training and they need to be individually upgraded using the new 2 items.
- training guidebook behaves similarly to the drone data
- training certificate behaves similarly to drone parts
, necessary to unlock specific levels of training (multiples of 5)
I was able to bring all specialized training levels up to 10 day 4. Below a video of the whole upgrading process.
Unfortunately for free to play players, there are already packs you can buy to go further with the training, and they are needed if you want to deploy the Gorilla very soon.
Levels, requirements and bond ratings
Only once you reach the rating “Rookie Partner I” you will be able to deploy the gorilla. To do so you need to level up the specialized trainings and do ranking promotions.
No Rating to “New Partner”
Let’s see the steps to reach “New Partner” rating:
- Level up ALL specialized trainings to level 25
- Promote rating
Below the amounts of Training guidebook and Training certificate for each level of specialized trainings up to level 25
| Levels | Training guidebook | Training certificate |
| 1,2,3,4 | 600 each level | |
| 5 | 600 | 10 |
| 6,7,8,9 | 600 each level | |
| 10 | 600 | 10 |
| 11,12,13,14 | 600 each level | |
| 15 | 600 | 10 |
| 16,17,18,19 | 600 each level | |
| 20 | 600 | 10 |
| 21,22,23,24 | 800 each level | |
| 25 | 800 | 20 |
Once ALL specialized trainings reached level 25 you can proceed with the Promotion Rating that will need the following items:
- 2 Bond Badges
“New Partner” to “Rookie Partner”
