There's a lot on its way to Cygames' popular anime fighter and it was all revealed at EVO 2024.
EVO 2024 kicked off its third and final day of competition with an exciting Top 6 for Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising. After crowning a champion, it was time for the day's first announcement. Cygames CEO Motohiro Okubo and Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising Creative Director Tetsuya Fukuhara took the stage to reveal what's next for the anime fighting game. It's a trailer for Versusia, a new character to the franchise.
Players were also treated to a preview of other features coming to the Version 1.50 update. This includes new additions to the game's story along with some noteworthy fighter balance changes. Look for a new online lobby mini-game, a new game mode called Grand Bruise, a new battle pass, and more.
