Written by Ross Locksley on 20 Feb 2024



Fighting game Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising has added a new character to the roster, this time looking outside of the Granblue universe and instead to the world of Nier Automata. Fan-favourite character 2B joins the line-up as a fully playable character, which should thrill fans of the both franchises.

The character was added in the game's 1.21 update which was released today (20th February), along with some other quality of life improvements. 2B is available in-game, a lobby avatar and figures for the figure studio.

The character costs £6.49, or included as part of the Season 1 character pass.
