Granblue Fantasy Versus Rising Shows Off New Nier Gameplay & Teases New Character
Arc System Works and Cygames has unveiled quite a lot during its Granblue Fantasy Versus Rising EVO 2023 special developer panel.
Creative director Tetsuya Fukuhara talked about new features and elements about the upcoming major update to the game (which can be considered a sequel to Granblue Fantasy Versus), but most importantly showed off a new character’s novelist and a tease of an upcoming fighter. The former is Nier and the latter is Grimnir. Nier fights using a spirit named Death and acts as another controllable character, similar to Carl Clover in BlazBlue.
Grimnir is a rushdown character with emphasis on his wind spells and mobility options. He can command the winds to advance across the battlefield in multiple directions and shift the trajectory of his projectiles at will. By utilizing his superior mobility options, he can rush down foes and oppress them with attacks from every angle. Kinda like Rashid from Street Fighter 6 but prettier.
Check out the gameplay & the title’s new features list below.
Enhanced Visuals
The visuals of Rising feature stunning, anime-like expressions through new post-processing effects. All in-game visual effects have been enhanced, along with some character models being updated for a more refined appearance.
Rollback and Cross-Play
Rollback and cross-play are coming to Granblue Fantasy: Versus at long last!
We’ve been working on making this happen ever since the launch of Granblue Fantasy: Versus. After extensive research and discussion, we decided to rework everything into Granblue Fantasy Versus: Risingas the cost to implement these features would nearly amount to the cost of making a new game.
It wasn’t a cheap solution by any means, but we’re glad we finally made it a reality!
