In fairness, this version will come with a hefty list of upgrades. How brave Cygames will be here will depend on its price. Yes, that’s new “version” and not “update” because Cygames is going old school by making the player base purchase a brand-new version instead of also providing this as a simple upgrade like every other fighting game publisher these days. The bigger surprise is that a new version of the Arc System Works-developed Granblue Fantasy: Versus is coming, specifically Granblue Fantasy: Versus Rising for PlayStation platforms and PC via Steam. But it’s also a surprise that the game has taken so long to arrive to begin with, so there are no assurances here. It would be a surprise if the game didn’t arrive worldwide by the year’s end. Another good sign is how the newest trailer is the first to have English voiceovers, in addition to the Japanese language variant. If that wasn’t enough, the Full Assist Mode will let a player venture through the entire game through the use of only the analog stick, largely letting the game play itself for maximum story enjoyment. The Assist Mode was detailed, an easy mode for players who want to focus on the story and not worry about the game’s difficulty, that will allow for players to perform combos with a single button. They all look unique from the lengthy gameplay demonstration provided.Ĭygames remarkably still didn’t provide a release timeframe for Relink beyond a vague “2023” timeframe, but there are signs suggesting the game will arrive by the end of this year, beyond series producer Tetsuya Fukuhara claiming that it’s in the fine-tuning stage of development. The stellar number of playable characters is perhaps one good reason why its development has been so long, depending on how unique their move sets will be. Several characters have been shown in previous trailers, and the new one focused on faces like Id, Charlotta, Yodarha, and Narmaya. Don’t count on either of those happening. ![]() Those of us in the public will likely never know the true answer, unless Cygames decides to be more transparent than other Japanese game publishing houses or if someone leaks it on a message board or blog in Japan. It remains difficult to tell whether development was restarted or continued from where PG left off four years ago. Multiple trailers have shown how the gameplay, including the action tempo, has been visibly modified in the time since, but that’s nothing abnormal for a game in development for so long. But it was switched to Cygames’ internal production house in 2019. The project, an action RPG featuring Granblue Fantasy’s most popular characters as playable faces, started production at PlatinumGames. There’s nothing hyperbolic about claiming that Relink’s development has been a prolonged one. This year, however, was more significant than the others thanks to their plans to provide a definitive update for Granblue Fantasy: Relink after it’s slaved away in development for years, alongside a surprise announcement for fighting game Granblue Fantasy: Versus. ![]() ![]() This comes in the form of updates for the still-ongoing mobile game (no longer on par with its popularity height years ago, but still popular per se) and titles being released for other dedicated gaming platforms. Cygames holds a large event for Granblue Fantasy at least once a year, the biggest dubbed the “Granblue Fantasy Fes” in which they detail the franchise’s newest and upcoming happenings.
