by Sage Ashford

Cygames and ArcSystemWorks revealed their first character pass for Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising, along with the surprise reveal that Nier: Automata’s 2B will be a guest character. The first character pass will include six characters, including Lucilius, Vane, Beatrix, and two characters to be announced later.

Lucilius will be added to the game on January 16th, with Nier’s 2B coming a month later.  Afterwards, Vane and Beatrix will appear in April and May. The remaining two characters will be added in August and October. That said, new characters aren’t the only thing being added to the game.  The first year of content plans to add a new stage, new in-game features, and an update to the online lobby with the version 1.1 update.  Later updates include a new Grand Bruise! game mode, a new lobby minigame, a bonus story, and a new game mode. Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising might have already released, but it’s clear the developers have months of support to come.

Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising is available now for PC and PlayStation consoles.
