Overview[]
A new project titled「Project N-EXTREME」is being developed for EXVS.2XB. It is based on the EXVS series, incorporating elements that link it to the game, similar to Gundam EXA. It has been revealed that many original characters and original mobile suits will appear in Cross Battle, making the game integration aspect significantly stronger compared to EXA.
In the March 2022 update, the melee-focused machine, N-EXTREME Gundam Explosion, and the shooting support machine, N-EXTREME Gundam Xanadu, participated simultaneously. Additionally, the navigator Merina Marlon Fitz was implemented as a player navigator. Furthermore, the title screen was updated to feature the four N-EXTREME Gundam.
In the following month, on April 27, 2022, the remaining N-EXTREME Gundam Vicious and N-EXTREME Gundam Supremacy joined the fray, along with the navigator Kano Clans being implemented.
The project appears to continue in OB, with the navigator Neia E Pique being implemented on September 26, 2023. Since its participation, the project was oddly referred to by the arcade title 『EXVS2XB(OB)』but in the June 2024 update, a new logo was finally introduced as "Project N-EXTREME."

Character[]
A 17-year-old high school student who becomes the pilot of N-EXTREME Unit 5. He is a hot-blooded individual with a strong sense of justice typical of athletic types and cannot overlook anyone in trouble. According to the name tag from the dojo below, his surname seems to be "Amagi."
He was abducted to another world by Melina Marlon Fits, the battle navigator of Team AA, and is forced to fight as the pilot of N-EXTREME Gundam to stop the historical alterations caused by the mysterious MS Galvaria. He is the so-called protagonist type who has a "VS player" experience but has never watched the Gundam series. In his first battle, he shows the sense and skill (along with basic knowledge like the name of the unit) to handle a 1-on-2 scenario with the Explosion.
Although he has a strong sense of justice, it can backfire. At the end of a mission, he learns about the spoiler of Amuro's fate during the Axis Shock, which, coupled with his past mentioned later, leads him to cause trouble by destroying Axis and attempting to alter history.
He lost his father in a “certain disaster” 10 years ago, and is usually a student of his father's “Raimi Tenshin Dojo” under his brother Marume. His mother runs “Japanese-style CAFE Amagi” and he has a younger brother named Ryoma.
Action in the Story[]
During a series of victories in a clobber game with Chikage, he is suddenly sucked into the case and finds himself in the cockpit of the N-EXTREME Gundam. At first, they are puzzled by the mysterious MS Galvaria in the sky above them and the ZAKU for Char and Aggai that surround them, but with Melina's words, “The point is the same as in the game! Melina's words, “The point is the same as in a game! The following ZAKU II for SHAR was also defeated in cooperation with Chikage's XANADU.
After returning to Japan, they were told how they were summoned and what happened to them, but in their second battle in the Axis Shock, they fought the Nightingale and Hi-ν Gundam summoned by Galvaria, and although they were damaged, they won the battle by working together.
However, as if in response to Amagi's outburst after being told about the Axis Shock, the mysterious “Awakening” system was triggered. After the situation was somehow resolved, the aircraft was temporarily sealed to await a decision on Amagi's disposition and to analyze the “Awakening” system.
Mystery in the Story[]
When a phenomenon called “probability oscillation,” in which a foreboding vision of a future destroyed by Galvaria seeps out, occurs in the world of Sai and Chikage, and a temporary scene of cracks in the sky occurs, a certain memory comes back.
Ten years earlier, when the young Sai and his father went to an amusement park in Tokyo, the sky cracked and an impact spread like this, blowing everything out of the sky, causing a mysterious catastrophe. The father puts his own life in danger, but his son's life is saved, and the emergency workers take care of his son, and the father disappears. But at the scene of the disaster, he sees Gundam Galvaria.
This incident reveals that his roots in helping others were influenced by his father's bravery,
And, it is a great mystery. |

Abilities[]
"Emele...ge...?"
― Sai Amagi, shouting the world “EMERGENCY” in his first combat.
Sai is not that familiar with the Gundam series and knows only a few famous MS (Mobile Suit) such as Gundam and Zaku. He has a strong sense of justice and “never” overlooks anyone who asks for help. On the other hand, he has a side of being a reckless person that can cause him to go out of control. This was probably the case during the Second Neo Zeon War when he was forced to take a stand against the Gundam Galvaria. He chased back Gundam Galvaria, but when he learned that Amuro had prevented the Axis from falling during the battle, he could not abandon him and went berserk to destroy the Axis, only to be stopped by Barka Nil.
At first, he was given a capsule containing nanomachines to erase his memories and given the option of forgetting everything and returning to his old life, but then he remembered the day his father saved his life from a disaster, and he decided to face the mystery of that disaster and what it means to “save others” in his own way, and he made up his mind to board the Gundam again. Normally, he is a member of the Gundam team.
Sai is a avid gamer before becoming a full-fledged pilot for AA-Team, he uses the GNEX-005E N-Extreme Gundam Explosion as his main MS (Mobile Suit) and it was Navigate by Melina Marron Fitz for assisting in battle. Sai possesses good reflexes and reaction speed, but he had no experience as a pilot. Through his journey Sai piloting skill becoming good and can toe-to-toe to the other skilled pilot.
"I wonder if I could have been a hero like my dad..."
― Sai Amagi

Description
Developed as the fifth unit of the N-Extreme series, the N-Extreme Gundam Explosion is equipped with the latest technology. The Explosion is so aptly named for its Bomber Knuckles, close-range thermal weapons used for punching attacks but can also produce literal explosions from the volatile particles it releases when in use. Of particular note is its Back Weapons System which houses numerous functions and weapons to allow it to better tackle various situations, similar to the Tactical Arms found within the Astray series of Gundam's.   The name “Xanadu” is derived from the English word “Explosion”. The coloring of the Gundam is based on the lordly tricolor, and the luminous color of various parts is yellow (orange).
