CyGames and Arc System Works has announced the new Granblue Fantasy Versus Rising ver. 2.50 launch today. With Demon Drill Sargent Ilsa making her rounds from drill sargent-ing duties as the new DLC, the game will introduce some more sweeping changes to the balancing. Ilsa has that reach and range to keep the opponent at bay.
Ilsa is a drill sergeant belonging to the Society – an organization dedicated to the hunting of primal beasts. Fiercely dedicated to the survival of new recruits on the battlefield, she relentlessly employs harsh language to push them beyond their limits. Beneath her abrasive officer exterior, she secretly yearns for romance and has a weakness for sweets.
Ilsa’s Character Guide is also available to keep up with the squats and other tactics. Ilsa is the last character on the Season 2 roster.
Granblue Fantasy Versus Goodies
Update wise: almost each character has about 10 or so notes this round. Major highlights from CyGames included these areas:
– Enhancing underutilized skills
– Increasing the utility and combo potential of normal attacks
– Streamlining strategic choices in neutral
To celebrate the launch, the Deluxe Edition is now 61% off until February 25th for both PlayStation 4 | 5 ecosystems and until February 17th for Steam. Premium Battle Pass 7 will make a comeback with Premium Battle Pass 12 in its’ release. Plenty of time to grab those weapon and character skins.
