Final Weapon gave a 3.5/5 in our Granblue Fantasy: Relink review, stating that while its combat is incredible, the story and certain side content fall short. The game will continue to improve over time and receive a slew of new content and playable characters via free updates, however.
Granblue Fantasy: Relink follows the crew of the Grandcypher as they travel into the Zegagrande Skydom. There, new allies and enemies await, with a handful of different islands to visit throughout the game’s ~20-hour story mode. Almost two dozen characters are available to play as, which makes combat a joy and keeps things fresh. Relink offers an incredible visual art style that almost resembles a painting as you navigate through its world.
Lastly, Granblue Fantasy: Relink is available now for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and PC via Steam.
