Development/Release

Granblue Fantasy: Relink was announced under the title of Granblue Fantasy Project Re: Link in August 2016, to be developed by a collaboration between PlatinumGames and Cygames. Some of the game's staff include composers Nobuo Uematsu and Tsutomu Narita, and artist Hideo Minaba.[1] PlayStation 4 was announced as the target platform.[2] The game is set in the same fictional realm as the original Granblue Fantasy but takes place in a different location, although some characters from the original game will appear.[3]

The first public gameplay was shown at GranBlue Fes 2017.[4] Director Tetsuya Fukuhara described some gameplay details - the game includes four person co-operative multiplayer, or, single person play with three AI characters.[5] Its official title, Granblue Fantasy: Relink, was revealed in December 2018.[6] In February 2019, PlatinumGames was no longer involved in the project, leaving Cygames to handle the rest of development.[7] Originally scheduled to be released in 2022, the game was delayed to February 1, 2024.[8]
