One of my absolute favorite games in the last few years was Granblue Fantasy: Relink. It had a good six months of consistently updating content before the team at Cygames went radio silent. Luckily, at the Nintendo Partner Direct, it made a surprising appearance.
Grandblue Fantasy: Relink Endless Ragnarok is a brand-new content update for the game. The Steam page for the content update is live and has more information about what to expect.
“From new stories to game modes, Relink has been refined and revamped for the ultimate action RPG experience.
Embark on new adventures.
Although the Astral Lilith’s machinations lay thwarted, winds of change begin to stir within the Zegagrande Skydom… Strange beings called the “ragnalia” herald the end times. Mysterious gateways beckon would-be challengers into a realm of chaos. And even the mighty Beelzebub, with his wings of steel, descends upon Zegagrande.Call in the big guns.
During their journey, players will unlock the ability to equip and call forth summons, adding a new dimension to battle strategy. Once channeled by Lyria, some summons can be temporarily controlled by the player; but if certain conditions are met, others will make a spectacular entrance alongside a new type of chain burst—the “primal burst.”More to master, more to play.
• New co-op quest tiers and additional bosses.
• The Conflux, an all-new solo mode where unpredictable challenges and enigmatic powers lurk within its depths.
• The introduction of master traits to push characters beyond their limits.
• Summons to expand on tactical options.
All of these features—and more—ensure that even after the credits roll, Relink’s skies remain vast!Play across boundaries.
Relink’s thrilling 4-player online co-op combat reaches new heights with crossplay across all platforms!”
One of the big negatives I had with the game was the lack of crossplay. This makes the content upgrade already worth the price for me. I can play on my PlayStation account with my friends who are on Steam. One thing that is locked to the Nintendo console version, though, is the addition of local co-op. If you have two people with two Nintendo Switch 2’s and two copies of the game, you can play locally with each other rather than needing an online connection.
Beatrix and Eustace will now be playable in Endless Ragnarok as well. That adds two largely requested characters to the roster. This is probably my favorite announcement at the event simply because I was not expecting more Granblue Fantasy: Relink news.
Granblue Fantasy: Relink is available on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and PC. It will launch on Nintendo Switch 2 the same day as the new content release, Endless Ragnarok, July 9th, 2026. You can purchase the new content as an upgrade pack on the previous platforms as well.
