Let me start by saying:


As an action RPG/JRPG fan, I really love how Cygames delivered this game and the attention to detail they have given to make this game fun and enjoyable. From the amazing combat to beautiful art style and amazing soundtrack, I am happy to say that this game tickles every itch that I have in an RPG/JRPG game.


Although the story very short, it is adequate enough and is fully jam-packed with fun and amazing storytelling and battles. You can think of this as the introduction of the main chunk of the game.

My only complain in the story though is some of the English translation to its Japanese audio is poorly translated.


This is where probably the majority of your playtime will be, and where the game really starts. Granblue Fantasy is well known for having cool and lovable characters in its franchise, and this game you get to play some of them! As of writing this review there are currently around 20 playable characters, and each of them has unique and fun combat mechanics.

You take on different quests from exploration to boss fights, either solo or with other players to grind character exp, materials, and sigils to make your character strong to further take on difficult quests. Very much similar to games like monster hunter, which I am a big fan of.

The combat is very fluid, fast-paced and fun. Since each character plays differently, they can have a wide variety of builds that you can try to match your favorite playstyle.


Even though the gameplay is entertaining, I just can't ignore the art direction the game went to from its environment to enemy designs. Everything very much an eye candy and is gorgeous.

Same goes with the game's audio design and OSTs. I am the type of person that appreciates a game's music and sound design, and Granblue Fantasy: Relink delivers well on this part.


Yes, the gameplay loop is compelling. Yes, the game is amazing. Yes, the game is fun.

As a player that loves grinding in video games, I really love what Cygames cooked with Granblue Fantasy: Relink. From the game's announcement since 2016, I think that it deserves all the love it's been having, and it's a game that was worth the wait.

I highly recommend this game to all players that love a fast paced action RPG/JRPG and to fans that love the franchise. Give it more love as the game really deserves it! ♥
