The gaming world is set to witness an exciting crossover in February 2024 as 2B, the iconic character from Square Enix's "NieR: Automata," joins the roster of "Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising." This significant addition brings a new level of excitement to the 2.5D fighting game, developed by Arc System Works and published by Cygames.

Released on December 14, 2023, "Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising" is available on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and Windows. As a sequel to "Granblue Fantasy Versus," the game introduces fresh mechanics, including new Dash Attacks and an updated Auto Combo system, now named "Triple Attack." Enhancing the online gaming experience, the netcode now features rollback and crossplay capabilities, allowing smoother and more inclusive battles across different platforms.

A unique aspect of "Rising" is its inclusion of lobby-based minigames, "Grand Bruise Legends!" These games are inspired by "Granblue Fantasy's" webcomic series, "Grand Blues!," and offer a delightful diversion with modes like "Rising Royale" and "Gold Brick Hoarder."
