Recently we learned that there will be at least two season passes planned on the calendar. On the one hand, Chaos Bringer in March of this year, a character that we will unlock if we finish the role-playing mode (it is a final boss) or if we buy it with real design. Other prominent names such as DLC are Narmaya (March), Soriz (April) and Djeeta (April). Another, still to be revealed, will be released in March.
Granblue Fantasy: Versus will be released on February 6 in Japan for PlayStation 4. In regards to the West, where it is also confirmed for North America and Europe, we only know that it will be released in the first quarter; that is, before March 31.
