As the player increases in level, he/she will visit more and more planets and areas to engage in new missions. Each planet also has specified Player versus Player arenas.
NOTE: The Threat Levels in this list only apply to being played for the first time.
After a level has been played once, replay results in a random mission area and newly spawned enemies specific to that area, with the exception of Mini-boss, which are Area specific.
NOTE: Any level indicated by "*" is an X-4 Threat Level that will end with a Boss, which are Planet Specific, but only after they are first encountered, otherwise it will still end with the Mini-Boss for that level.
