- Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising Version 2.00 If it’s available now
- It introduces sandalphon as a new playable character to the game
- The update also brings lots of new features and balance adjustments
Version 2.00 has arrived at the popular combat game Granblue Fantasy Versus: RisingAt And this is perhaps just the biggest content update that the game has seen since the launch of the end of 2023.
The main line version 2.00 update is the addition of a new playable character in sandalphon. Lightly one of Granblue Fantasy Mobil game’s most popular characters, it’s nice to see him finally arrive in Rises.
Sandalphon is the first of five characters added as part of the character season Pass 2 that players can buy now. He is ready to be followed by Galleon (spring 2025), Wilnas (Summer 2025), Meg (autumn 2025) and Ilsa (early 2026).
Battle Pass Round 7 has also been added, offering a huge amount of free and premium reward, including new character colors, titles, music and a brand new ‘arbitrator for the coast’ skin to playful character Zooey. Zooey is also my most important in the game, so this is a passport I will definitely grab (as well as hope for some much needed buffs for the character).
Of crucial importance has version 2.00 brought lots of new content to Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising. There is a new state of survival that tasks players to get through as much of a 100-match tip as possible, which earns rewards along the way. Hopefully it will be a thicker offline time sink, especially as Buffs unique to survival mode should offer some smart roguelitic elements.
A new online training mode has also been added to jump online to practice combinations or basic elements with a friend or coaching mate. This is a feature that quickly becomes standard in many of the best battle games, so I’m glad to see it finally arrive Rises.
Of course, it would not be an important new version without significant system and character balance adjustments, and developers Cygames and ARC System Works have controlled just that. Changes in full balance are available to look now on the game’s official site. The most important takeaways here include the rebalancing of powerful universal skills such as brave counters as well as invincible and counting skills.
Eventually, both the Standard and Deluxe versions of Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising have received their largest discount yet at 61% discount for a limited period of time. It’s a great time to start playing the game yourself or as a means of picking up character passport Season 1 at a significantly reduced price. Not a bad way to save cash on the game if you have recently sprayed on one of the best combinations.
