    Granblue Fantasy Versus is a spin off game of the popular mobile gacha game. This game not only does a good job of getting you involved in the Granblue world, but also with fighting games in general. With a simple, yet still very fun, control scheme, players new to fighting games can easily learn how to play. The game also includes an excellent set of tutorials and glossaries that can make learning even easier. While the online isn't the most stable, the offline modes include a story mode, where you can fight waves of enemies and unlock skins for your characters, and even bonuses for the mobile game. The premium edition includes a beautiful artbook, soundtrack, a cool PS4 theme and set of avatars, and all the alternate colors for every character. All in all, a very worthwhile experience for longtime Granblue or fighting game fans, or people looking to get into either.

    GBVS is a fun fighting game, but sadly it feels like a cashgrab behind the polish. Only 11 characters at launch is pretty disappointing, even moreso when they had two season passes planned before launch. The gameplay itself is good, but the value is honestly pretty bad unless you're a huge fan of Granblue or if you're a fiend and will play a ton of versus matches to get your money's worth. I'd like to call this game overpriced, with all the DLC and small starting roster, but if you think you'll get your money's worth from playing other people all the time it's worth it.

    I'm not a fighting game connoisseur, so it's hard to compare it to other games in the same genre, but I did have a bunch of fun playing Granblue Fantasy Versus. Particularly, I love the RPG mode added. While it's not super deep, it does offer a ranking system for completed quests and a hard mode for replay value. I kind of wish hard mode was unlocked from the get-go because obtaining S ranks in the standard mode were too easy. Despite that, will get stuck though on certain bosses in RPG mode, and my only advice for that is make great use of your Weapon Grid and exploit the bosses' elemental weakness by tailoring your weapon grid towards that weakness.

    This is a truly gorgeous looking and extremely well balanced fighter. Even the professional tournament, Super TSB, every character is represented except 1. And that 1 character is used as a secondary fighter for many. But pass the professional stuff, this is a great game for casual players as well. No super long hard to do button combos, great visuals and music, very fluid gameplay where I haven't seen any FPS drops (playing on a PS4 Pro), and has a good lineup of characters all with varied fighting styles. And as the other reviewer also stated, it's a nice throwback to the 1vs1 fighters. I've played Blaze Blue, DoA, Street Fighter, and Dengeki Bunko all in recent history but this one just feels better with it's simplicity of a 1vs1. Also, this game is an intro of sorts into the Granblue IP that has been doing awesome in Japan. This is the first taste for the Western World and it's good. Later in the year we can look forward to Granblue Fantasy Relink, which will be an action RPG and already lining itself up as one of the years best RPGs overall. So now the time to get familiar with the characters and styles and go buy Granblue Fantasy Versus.

    If you like 2D fighters like guilty Gear, Street Fighter or Dragon Ball FigherZ this game is for you. Not to mention it has the character designer from Final Fantasy tactics a RPG mode plus your basic fighting modes. Just wished this came with the season pass because its expensive.

    There's been a lot of decent fighters out in the last few years but Granblue Fantasy Versus instantly grabbed me with the great 2.5D visuals and more traditional 1 on 1 gameplay. I enjoy Dragonball Fighterz, Blaze Blue Cross Tag, & MvC but there's something to a nice 1v1 fighter that I've always enjoyed more. There's a great cast of characters, lots of varied fighting styles, & a fantastic soundtrack. Highly recommended if you enjoy fighting games. The only downside is even if you shell out for the Premium version, you've still got to hand over cash for DLC characters. But I guess that's just the way things are going these days unfortunately. Anyone remember buying a game and that was it? You owned ALL the content? Good times.

    This is my first time being this pleased with the physical extras included with a limited edition, in point of fact. The art book is substantive, full of colorful original illustrations, and includes notes from the dev staff in English. The mini soundtrack cd has several memorable tracks, but what stands out most to me is the gorgeous cover featuring the starting roster in rocker attire. It all looks fantastic. While I see people mentioning issues with their codes, I had no trouble at all with mine, and neither did the members of my Granblue Fantasy crew/guild from the mobile game. Everything redeemed and claimed, using the provided instructions. The code issues other reviewers referenced appear to be exceptions, rather than the typical experience.

    This game is based from the hit mobile RPG game Granblue Fantasy but with a different twist since it combines both RPG and fighting arcade aspects as the game is essentially a Street Fighter but with Granblue Fantasy style. Also the game has RPG mode which mimics the style of GBF on mobile and will definitely keep the original fans of that game satisfied. The artwork is very beautiful which complements the gameplay and the animations are extremely well made. If you’re already a fan of this series then you’re in for a treat.

    As a intermediate fighting game player, I can say this game is pretty well made based on mechanics and unique variations between characters. If you're looking for a game based on complete combo game, I'd say this type of game isn't for you since it is mostly based on footsies, space control and skill management. Personally satisfied with the game and the product was shipped without issue when delivered!

    Beautiful graphics. Smooth gameplay. Mission tutorials teach all the core fighting game concepts (you'll learn what "cross-ups" and "hit-confirm" means). Special moves can be done either with traditional street-fighter-like movements for experienced players or with a push of a button for beginners. This game and the new Samurai Shodown are probably my favorite newer fighting games.

    Even if you don't play the mobile game like I do, if you're a fan of anime fighters, Granblue versus looks amazing and is really fun to play. I'm more of a casual fighting fan, so I do appreciate the easier move inputs, but it still takes a lot to master the game. Just wish online was better and also had a random match option available instead of just lobby.

    Everything came in the mail in perfect condition! The CD and art book are great! The theme is cool and the avatar set is perfect if you love the characters from granblue fantasy. There is two styles of each avatar too. I definitely recommend this game if you like granblue fantasy or fighting games!

    I suck at fighting games, but this is pretty easy to pick up and play. RPG mode is also a pretty handy teacher for the basics. Wish it came with the season 1 pass though. If you've never heard of the original game, it's still fun and the game will tell you everything you need to know. If you are familiar with the original game, all the nods and references are nifty.

    The main reason you would get this game is if you're a fan of the Granblue series honestly. There are better fighting games out there but there's still solid gameplay and decent story if you're up for it.

    I wasn’t sure if I would like this game, I had not heard of the series prior to this but was really looking for something new, this was it! Each character felt unique it was refreshing playing every single one and having them feel completely different from one another, along with online play there is a solo/story mode I haven’t gotten the chance to try that yet but I’m looking forward too it.

    The level in detail from this developer is second to none. The amount of content you get is good as well. Although I don’t like how some color options are tied to DLC. The way online lobbies are presented remind me of the old arcade days. Definitely own this in your gaming collection.

    A fun fighting game for fans of Graneblue fantasy. excellent art and fun combat system. Im not pro enough to know about ballance but this has a single player mode that is worth playing. Premium also came with codes for the mobile game.
