What it is
Granblue Fantasy: Relink is a 2024 action RPG from Cygames, set in the Sky Realm, where islands float across a vast expanse. Players take the role of a skyfaring crew’s captain, joined by Vyrn and Lyria, and travel toward the fabled island of Estalucia. In the Zegagrande Skydom, the crew confronts powerful primal beasts and a mystery involving the Church of Avia. Combat is real-time and built around a party of four, with a roster of skyfarers who have distinct weapons, skills, and fighting styles. Link Attacks and Chain Bursts support coordinated attacks. Quests can be played solo or in online co-op for up to four players, with loot used to improve gear. Assist modes offer an option for players who prefer less demanding action. The Windows game includes Steam Cloud, Steam achievements, gamepad recommendations, and partial controller support.
