[1] Gods Eater Burst (ゴッドイーター バースト, Goddo Ītā Bāsuto) is an enhanced re-release that expanded the story and introduced new game mechanics.

An anime television series based on the game, also called God Eater, was released by Ufotable in 2015.

The Link Burst is capable of "stacking" up to three times by receiving multiple Aragami bullets in succession.

The updated game also adds four weapons: Charge Spear, Boost Hammer, Shotgun, and Variant Scythe.

Dr. Paylor Sakaki teaches new recruits about Aragami, and an initiative to expand the arcology of the Far East Branch known as the Aegis Project.

Sakaki, aware of the director's intentions, deceives him into searching for the singularity in Europe by telling him a mysterious Aragami appeared there.

Sakaki uses this time to send the first unit on a mission leading to the discovery of a human-like Aragami named Shio.

Johannes catches the two and admits that the Aegis project's true goal is to awaken the Aragami "Nova", destroy all life on earth, and save the Fenrir staff and their families by sending them into outer space in arks.

A power outage causes the branch to go over to the backup generators controlled by Johannes, allowing him to see Sakaki is holding Shio, who is the singularity.

Normally it is impossible to wield someone else's God Arc, but to save the life of Licca, the engineer, the protagonist endures the excruciating pain.

Before falling unconscious, the protagonist is saved from an Aragami by a God Eater, Ren, who used to work with Lindow.

During the battle, Ren reveals he is actually a projection of Lindow's God Arc and sacrifices himself to defeat the Aragami.

The monster becomes highly resistant to God Arcs, having similar components to the Outer Wall of Fenrir's Far East Branch.

The first unit team (the protagonist, Soma, Alisa, and Kota) are all defeated, but an Aragami resembling Shio stops it from killing them.

The God Eaters attempt to stymie its growth and assemble a weapon capable of killing it by hunting Dreadnought class Aragami, while encountering various apparitions of Shio in the field.

However, Arius Nova kills a Dreadnought Aragami and devours the core, as the baits set up by Sakuya and Lindow didn't distract it.

Kota shoots Arius Nova, revealing that the new core introduced into its system makes it vulnerable for a small amount of time.

The game was confirmed to contain additional arms, a new story, characters, enemies along with rebalanced gameplay and improved graphics.

The first novel series was written by Yuurikin, illustrated by Sokabe Shuji, published by Enterbrain and serialized in Famitsu Bunko magazine.

[19] The second is titled God Eater: the spiral fate and was illustrated by Saito Rokuro, published by Dengeki Comics and serialized in Side-B.N Magazine.

[20] A third manga titled God Eater: the summer wars was illustrated by Okiura, published by Kadokawa Shoten and serialized in Dragon Age Comics Magazine.

[23] The anime began airing on July 12, 2015, after the first episode was delayed by a week due to production issues.

[25] It was composed by Go Shiina and featured the game's opening and ending theme songs, "Over the Clouds" and "My Life", both of which are sung by Alan.

A set of nine miniatures featuring the Aragami was released in Japan as Soul of Figuration God Eater.

A cell phone game spin off titled, God Eater Mobile was developed by Mobage and released on December 16, 2010, in Japan for the i-Mode, EZWeb, and Yahoo!

Similar to the original PSP game, it features character customization, item purchasing and hunting Aragami.
