The persona strategy of saturating your franchise across as many genres as possibles, lol.

Full-featured paid OIIRA release when?

Oh, I just saw that Djeeta is included in the "Main Character" page of ReLink, but not in Versus... Sure hope we could play as her too.

Cygames sure are hitting up all the right names.

They got Platinum to do their action game.
They got Arc System to do their fighting game.

Which TOP quality guns for hire would they pick up next?

I mean these are all very specific weapons like the Grand series (Murgleis) and Brionac (Zeta's character draw weapon)

I think I see Sieg's sword there as well. Or is that Percy's character weapon.

Who am I kidding, of course all the 4 knights are going to be in this game.

Was wondering who's weapon it was right in the middle because it look so familiar.

Seems like it's Percival Lohengrin

I think they said you can switch between Gran and Djeeta whenever you want, just like in Granblue. I just really hope we get some different job versions. Glorybringer would be super cool, as would Berserker.

They've also absorbed some really exciting developers who are working on shit we don't know about. Like they have the director of Bravely Default, the producer of Danganronpa, etc.

Time for playable Belial. He'd have the best/worst winning quotes.

Nice to see ArcSys seems to finally get the recognition and fundings it deserves. But I'd rather have a new Guilty Gear tbh...

Wow, Platinum and ArcSys, huh.

The power of this game is really undersold in the West, lol.

If it does get localized, I'll get it for cheap unless Arcsys pulls out a miracle and actually has good rollback netcode (it won't, this is the safest OS ever)

I hope some of my favorite characters will make it, like Yuisis, Alexiel, Tweyen (Son) and Clarisse.

Man, this looks really nice.

I've been meaning to look into what Granblue Fantasy is all about and why it's so popular. This game and Relink look really cool, I like the character designs a lot.

Cygames ever so proactive in getting in on that cool shit. ArcSys must have expanded a lot to support all these games using this technique. I guess they can afford to take their time with the next guilty gear.

OH MY FUCKING GOD THIS LOOKS SO SICK

AAAAAAAAAH

More character types in one trailer than in the entirety of DBFZ.

Lead Battle Planner is Pachi, the same from the Xrd games.

HYYYYPE

I don't know shit about Granblue, but I want to play as that whip girl with the wolf and the wallbounce. Reminds me of Millia.

Did Granblue really make Cygames so much money that they're now able to basically fund AAA games in whatever genre they want?

Perfect artstyle. Would love to see a lot of the cast reimagined with the Arc Systems touch.

The Mariah chick doesnt look that popular but id be down day -5 if she got in, This Zooey chick seems like a safer bet though. Man this series aesthetic doesnt appeal to me at all lmao but i love Arc sys

I'm terrible at fighting games, but hook this into my veins.

I never expected this series to get the Fighter Z treatment.

Granblue is 4 years old, still growing and still making a crapton of money. Not many mobile games do that. And thats just one game, they still got Shadowverse and many others which are netting them a ton of money. If they can throw money on massive newspaper spreads just to announce events for their games they literally have too much money and not know what to burn it on.

Slaythe Here's the official YouTube upload for the trailer:




Plus some screenshots, in case you want to add those to the OP too:

(spoiler tagged cause they're 900px wide and might be annoying for some users)

The official website (in English) lists its platform as "PlayStation 4" only, so I think it's safe to say that it's an exclusive.

I'm really excited for this and Relink. I've been interested in Granblue Fantasy for the longest time, primarily because of Hideo Minaba's stunning art, but the main game itself is... well, it's not bad, but the format is simply not for me. Given that, now that CyGames is having games of differing genres made for its popular universe, then I can finally see these awesome character designs in action in the types of games I can see myself playing. I'm not big on fighting games, but if FighterZ is any indication, then I think I'll be able to enjoy this one a lot.
