The following result from the
GBVS CyGames Cup 2022 Special
, consisting characters originally meant to be the next DLC waves of previous game, with one of them who were NPCs in the first game like
Beatrix
and
Seofon
was ultimately meant for their possible inclusions in
Rising
.
This would come full circle as Beatrix is expecting to be playable as part of Rising's Character Pass 1.
It was originally planned to be released at November 30, 2023, but was delayed, following sudden bugs within the last beta test.
It features collaborations with
Uma Musume Pretty Derby
on featuring avatar versions of the characters via DLC premium set.
Because of Motohiro Okubo's previous occupation as Bandai Namco's
Soulcalibur VI
co-producer prior to becoming Cygames America CEO, not only
Granblue Fantasy Versus Rising
becomes the second known fighting game that involves 2B character from Square Enix's
Nier: Automata
whenever Okubo involved, it becomes the first overall Arc System Works-developed game to have a guest character from third-party series.
