It?s always exciting when an old franchise finally makes the leap across the pond. Such is the case with Granblue Fantasy, a mobile JRPG that released in 2014 to a very positive reception. While that entry to the series has still not managed to come to the West yet, its fighting game spin-off shall. Granblue Fantasy: Versus will hit PlayStation 4 on March 3rd, 2020. While the hope was to release all PlayStation 4 Granblue games worldwide at the same time, Versus will make it to Japan about a month earlier with a February 6th release date there.
Granblue Fantasy: Versus combines two genres, with both a 2.5D sidescrolling action game and a 2.5D anime fighting game. In the single-player story mode, you?ll go through sidescrolling stages, fighting minions and bosses to get to the end. Once you?re ready to combat another player, the game instead becomes a 1v1 fighting game. There are 11 playable characters at launch, with at least five more coming through DLC. You can see the trailer for the game below:

In addition to the regular version of the game, there will also be a limited edition at launch. This version will come with a special box, an art book, the soundtrack, and a DLC card that lets you download a special ?treasure.? While nice, it seems like the West won?t be getting the version that comes with a shot glass and a set of coasters.
This isn?t the only Granblue game looking to make its way to the West. Action RPG Granblue Fantasy: Relink is also planned to come West on...
