Granblue Fantasy is a drive in Japan, with the cellular RPG reaching over 25 million downloads. In North America, our first huge foray into the sequence is Granblue Fantasy: Versus, a brand new preventing sport by Responsible Gear and Dragon Ball FighterZ developer Arc System Works. Versus is an effective way to introduce your self to the Granblue Fantasy world and characters, and it stands out as being an approachable entry within the style. With enjoyable characters and funky movesets, Versus is an general respectable fighter that’s value a glance, nevertheless it’s not with out its flaws.

Vesus is slower than most anime preventing video games, however extra deliberate fight isn’t a nasty factor, because it’s nonetheless rife with cool combos and flashy particular strikes. The barrier to entry is low, because of the flexibility to simply execute particular strikes and fundamental combos. Your important assaults revolve round your face buttons; one does a signature assault whereas urgent one another button in succession chains collectively auto combos. As well as, each character has 4 distinctive expertise, however in the event you use the shortcut buttons to activate them, they function on cooldowns alongside tremendous strikes that may be activated as soon as a meter is crammed.

You even have entry to an arsenal of defensive capabilities, resembling a normal block, a nifty dodge to keep away from low assaults, and cross-overs that allow you to slip behind a foe. Utilizing these defensive expertise appropriately could make all of the distinction, however I additionally loved the push of mixing my expertise with customary assaults and watching my chain depend rise, solely to high all of it off with a satisfying tremendous for good measure.

All the pieces is simple to be taught, and I used to be impressed with how effectively Versus reveals you the ropes and supplies the flexibility to shortly make the most of particular strikes by way of shortcuts. This doesn’t imply it’s simple to grasp, as my methods continued to evolve as I performed extra matches, however I didn’t really feel overwhelmed. Depth is available in studying the way to put together and react towards the numerous characters’ strikes and utilizing the defensive capabilities appropriately. In some ways, it jogs my memory of different techniques in Arc’s video games, nevertheless it feels extra simplified.

In comparison with a few of its contemporaries, Versus’ roster is small, with solely half of its characters holding extra distinctive and thrilling skills. You’ve got your customary (and boring) fighters like Gran, with fundamental sword strikes. However some choices have extra character on the battlefield, like Ladiva and her wrestling strikes, resembling clotheslines, headbutts, slams, and throws. Each transfer looks like an elaborate efficiency by her to work the gang, and watching the love she places into it’s enjoyable. Then there’s the boisterous Lowain, who has two buddies at his facet to help with combos and run interference through the battle. He additionally has a ridiculous tremendous the place he calls in an enormous Yggdrasil tree that covers the bottom in flames. The roster has every thing from extra ranged characters like Metera together with her bow and arrow to sooner fighters like Lancelot together with his flurry of slashes. It is a good place to begin, as there’s sufficient right here to seek out somebody who matches your playstyle, even when some characters really feel way more inventive and thrilling than others.

 

One among Versus’ ingenious concepts is its RPG mode, which has you leveling up characters by taking up quests, looking for higher gear drops, and fascinating in larger-than-life boss fights. It additionally incorporates the gacha mechanics from the cellular sport by providing you with draw tickets that you need to use in hopes of pulling a uncommon weapon. Whereas it has the carrot on the stick of getting cool new weapons both via quests or attracts, the mode is without doubt one of the sport’s greater disappointments. I like the idea, however the execution is finished in essentially the most boring manner attainable.

In RPG mode, you go to islands and enlist in a number of quests of simply preventing off waves of repetitive CPU enemies, hit a miniboss, after which ultimately face off towards the island’s huge unhealthy. The ultimate boss battles of every space are the principle attraction, as these are elaborate fights usually requiring you to keep away from projectiles or get into a selected space for canopy. The ultimate boss of this mode takes a web page out of the RPG handbook, with a number of kinds and nasty assaults which might be onerous to dodge. I appreciated these huge bouts, however having to place up with the boring quests to get there isn’t definitely worth the worth of admission. The plot is fairly barebones and bland, though you do get an thought of characters’ personalities.

A lot of the enjoyable in Granblue Fantasy: Versus lies in on-line bouts. So far as servers and efficiency are involved for ranked play, I by no means received paired with an opponent instantaneously, however I additionally by no means waited quite a lot of minutes. Once I was in matches, I by no means skilled any lag, and was truly shocked by how effectively every thing functioned. Time will inform if Versus sustains a strong playerbase for low wait instances, however for now every thing appears to be in working order.

Regardless of some shortcomings, Granblue Fantasy: Versus is a good place to begin for the sequence’ entry into the preventing style. I applaud it for breaking down some boundaries that newcomers have stepping into preventing video games and incorporating RPG mechanics into its fight. Granblue Fantasy: Versus won’t reinvent the wheel, however there’s additionally one thing to be mentioned about an approachable preventing sport that doesn’t bathroom you down with overly complicated inputs.
