A new chapter in the Granblue Fantasy saga comes with the expansion GranblueFantasy: Relink – Endless Ragnarok, announced by Cygames for PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 4 and PC on Steam.Its launch is scheduled for July 9.This expansion will include improvements, characters and modes designed to renew the experience for both those who already know the series and those trying it for the first time.Additionally, for the first time, cross-play between all platforms is enabled.
Granblue Fantasy: Relink – Endless Ragnarok expands the game’s story, where a crew faces the dangers of the skies and explores the Islamic land of Estalucia.After frustrating the plans of the Astral Lilith, the protagonists encounter unprecedented threats represented by the so-called ragnalia, creatures associated with the end of times, and the imposing Beelzebub, who appears to alter the destiny of Zegagrande Skydom.
Among the main new features of Granblue Fantasy: Relink – Endless Ragnarok, the new modes stand out, such as Conflux, designed for those who prefer to venture alone, facing unconventional challenges and obtaining special powers.The cooperative aspect will be strengthened with the incorporation of additional difficulty levels in missions, as well as new enemies and bosses, including Beelzebub, optimizing the experience for both casual gaming sessions and more demanding end-game content.
For the first time, characters will be able to unlock and use summons during battles, adding a tactical dimension to combat.Some of these invocations, channeled by the character Lyria, can be controlled briefly, while others will unleash spectacular attacks called primal bursts.Master Traits are also added, allowing characters to expand their abilities beyond the usual limits, encouraging the most dedicated players to perfect their strategies and retrace their steps.
The launch will offer different access and update methods depending on the platform.Those who already own Granblue Fantasy: Relink will be able to opt for a paid Upgrade Kit to access Endless Ragnarok on the same platform, maintaining their saved data and progress.There are two upgrade kits: a standard one and a special one with weapon collections, color packs, emotes and previous downloadable content.
Among the notable benefits is the early purchase bonus, which provides useful objects and advantages for advancing in the early stages of the game, as well as for facing demanding challenges.Cygames will also host a closed beta to evaluate the cross-play and gameplay of the new character Beatrix, allowing registration on its official website with lottery selection.
Cross-play is one of the biggest attractions of Granblue Fantasy: Relink -Endless Ragnarok, allowing players from different platforms to share cooperative games online.This novelty responds to a recurring request from the community and seeks to extend the useful life of the game by forming a unified user base.Both the variety of missions and the possibilities for customization and character progression will contribute to enriching the cooperative rhythm.
The different editions and expansion kits follow the trend of diversifying the sales models for downloadable content.Although special packages represent advantages, those who have already purchased certain content should pay attention to avoid duplicate purchases, since no additional benefits are granted for overlapping.
Cygames reinforces its communication with the community through exclusive presentations on YouTube, where the Granblue Fantasy series maintains a prominent presence.For those who have not yet tried the base game, it is discounted and is included in the PlayStation Plus catalog for those who have a subscription to the Extra and Premium plans.
