The game uses a top-down perspective with grid-based battles and field exploration. Players advance through story areas in the real world and enter network zones for combat, where movement, attacks, and defense depend on the battle grid and selected chips. During fights, positioning and chip timing are crucial, especially when lining up enemies for area attacks. Progress comes from clearing story objectives, collecting new chips, and opening access to new network routes and events.
