Battle Pass System
Season 1 of the Battle Pass spreads its rewards across 50 levels, gated by Battlepass EXP earned from normal play, with a default requirement of 2,000 EXP per level. Every level rewards both tracks simultaneously: the Free track and the Premium track, with Premium consistently paying out roughly double the Gems and reroll materials of Free at the same tier. Players who do not want to grind out every level can buy level-skip products in bundles of 1, 10, or 50 levels to fast-forward straight to later rewards.
The bulk of the pass is built from the game's core reroll and currency economy: Gem drops that climb from 150-300 at level 1 up to 450-900 by the later tiers, along with Trait Crystals, Equipment Reroll and Equipment Lock materials, and Stat Rerolls distributed throughout. Added up across all 50 levels, the Free track totals 5,750 Gems and the Premium track totals 11,500 Gems, meaning even a Free-track player who fully completes the season banks a substantial pile of Gems without spending anything beyond time.
The pass's headline reward sits at the very last tier. Both tracks grant a copy of the same exclusive Mythic unit at level 50, but only the Premium track's copy comes pre-flagged as Shiny, turning the final reward into a genuine incentive to buy Premium rather than just a cosmetic bonus, since Shiny status normally has to be earned through the gacha system's 1% base Shiny chance.
Details
Free vs. Premium value
At nearly every tier, the Premium track simply doubles what the Free track offers in raw currency and reroll materials, which makes the Premium pass primarily a currency-efficiency purchase rather than one that unlocks entirely new reward types. The one true differentiator is the level 50 capstone unit, where the Premium copy comes Shiny out of the box, a shortcut around the standard 1% Shiny roll chance that Free track players and regular gacha pulls are otherwise subject to.
Pacing and level skips
With a flat 2,000 EXP requirement per level and no escalating cost between tiers, Battle Pass progression stays linear across the full season rather than slowing down near the end, which keeps the level 50 reward achievable through normal play for players who stay active for the season's duration. Level-skip products exist for players who join late in a season or want to guarantee the final unit without waiting out the full EXP grind.
Reroll materials on the track
Beyond raw Gems, the pass is one of the steadiest sources of the game's reroll economy. Trait Crystals fuel Trait rerolls, Stat Rerolls push a unit's Stat Potential grade, and Equipment Reroll and Equipment Lock materials shape gear rolls, all distributed across both tracks at every tier. Because Premium roughly doubles these material counts alongside Gems, a Premium player finishing Season 1 accumulates a meaningfully larger reroll stockpile than a Free-track player over the same 50 levels, on top of the Shiny capstone unit.
FAQ
Is the Anime Expeditions Battle Pass worth buying?
Premium roughly doubles the Gems and reroll materials earned at every tier compared to Free, and its level 50 reward includes a Shiny version of the exclusive unit instead of a standard one, making it primarily a value purchase for players already planning to play the full season.
How much EXP does each Battle Pass level need?
2,000 Battlepass EXP per level by default across Season 1's 50 tiers, earned through normal gameplay.
What is the final Battle Pass reward?
Level 50 grants an exclusive Mythic-tier unit on both tracks. The Premium copy is Shiny by default, while the Free track copy is a standard, non-Shiny version of the same unit.
Can I skip Battle Pass levels?
Yes, through dedicated level-skip products that jump ahead by 1, 10, or 50 levels at once.
How many Gems can I earn from a free Battle Pass?
5,750 Gems across the Free track's 50 tiers, on top of Trait Crystals, Stat Rerolls, and Equipment Reroll and Equipment Lock materials distributed along the way.
Does the Battle Pass reset between seasons?
Each season runs its own 50-tier track with its own capstone reward. Season 1's structure, a Free and Premium track sharing the same EXP requirement, is expected to carry forward as the template for future seasons.
What is the difference between Battlepass EXP and unit EXP?
Battlepass EXP only advances Battle Pass tiers and has nothing to do with a unit's level. Fusing spare units still grants regular unit EXP separately, and the two currencies do not interact.
