Broken gear

[SD3.024G]

Hello
I recently bought a Schwinn Ditch 3.0 full suspension mountain. Assembly was fairly simple and I enjoy riding it. Recently though as I went up a sudden slope and pushed on the right pedal the 6th gear on the back broke in half. I stopped to check and it fell on the ground. It does say DNP Slick Shift System on it, which is a 8 gear setup
but I couldn't find it anywhere. Does anyone have a suggestion? I have searched it up and couldn't find any retailers that sell it as well.

If this is a new bike, contact the seller for replacement under warranty.
