A support character cannot be manually summoned by the player if it has already automatically summoned itself. When a support character automatically summons itself, it will not reset the support character charge gauge, and can even summon when the gauge is not full. When Support Drive level 1 is activated, the players support characters will summon themselves automatically depending on their support type depending on what actions the player is executing. Level 1 is activated once the players support characters are summoned enough times. The 2nd new feature is the Support Drive. Each of these can be unlocked for each support character and will decide the actions of the support character during Support Drive level 1. These types are Defense, Attack, and Balanced. Support characters return with 2 new features.
