Cygames' expanded PlayStation 5 re-release, Granblue Fantasy: Relink – Endless Ragnarok, has been confirmed as a major update to the original title, packing substantial new content and technical improvements.
Push Square reports that while the developer will offer a discounted upgrade path for existing owners, the upgrade is not inexpensive. Cygames' confirmation that a paid upgrade option will be available gives players who already own the game a route to the new version, but the discount does not appear to make the step up trivial from a cost perspective.
Endless Ragnarok is billed as an expanded edition of the already sizeable Granblue Fantasy: Relink, with additional story content, new features and performance enhancements tailored for PS5 hardware. The re-release aims to leverage the console's capabilities to deliver improved visuals and smoother frame-rates alongside the new material.
The availability of a paid upgrade may divide the player base, as owners weigh the value of the additional content and technical upgrades against the cost of moving to the new edition. Cygames' decision to provide a discounted path acknowledges existing players while maintaining a premium positioning for the expanded release.
Further details and exact pricing were outlined in Push Square's coverage. Full specifics on upgrade pricing, editions and retailer availability can be found in the original report: Push Square – Upgrading to Granblue Fantasy: Relink's Huge PS5 Re-Release Ain't Cheap.
Expect continued reporting as retailers and Cygames confirm regional pricing, pre-order options and any edition-specific bonuses for the PS5 release.
