At the Granblue Fantasy Fes 2022-2023 event held recently, CYGAMES announced that the enhanced version of its fighting game Granblue Fantasy Versus, titled Granblue Fantasy Versus Rising, would be open for testing in May 2023 for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 players.

However, the officials announced today that the playtest has been postponed due to stability issues in online gameplay. The team hopes to ensure that there are no issues before commencing the test in order to provide players with the best playtest experience. The updated test period will be announced in near future.

The upcoming fighting game Granblue Fantasy Versus Rising not only retains the foundation of the first game, but also adds new actions, skills, characters, mechanisms, transitional scenes, and stories, among others. In terms of the combat system, it will support rollback netcode and cross-platform play, while also enhancing visual quality of combat animations. In addition, the game also includes the mini-game "Grand Bruise Legends", where players can play with dozens of other online players and participate in a variety of unique and interesting battle royale modes.
