GamesRadar: “If Cygames can get slick, stylish action to work in an ongoing online context as well as the single- player story, this could end up being one of our favourite ways to spend evenings with friends. After all, its work on the mobile game proves the dev's got the chops to keep players engaged over the long- term.
We've yet to see a developer really get a Devil May Cry-styled online game right, but we'd put good money on Cygames being the one which could do it. Alongside the great fighting game Granblue Fantasy Versus (check last issue), it seems that the Granblue franchise is ready to take PS4 by storm, and we're prepared to set sail right into its heart.”
Hanzala from eXputer says, "In a time where microtransactions mean pay-to-win and replace any free updates, Granblue Fantasy: Relink presents the best of both worlds."
WTMG's Fernando da Costa: "Granblue Fantasy Relink was not only well worth the wait, but it blew my expectations clear out of the water. If I’m honest, I anticipated a JRPG that was a bit above average but wouldn’t really be a blip in a Game of the Year discussion. Well, shut my mouth because, while it does tell the traditional tale of preventing the apocalypse, it handles it exceptionally. It isn’t flawless, but the missteps that it does have are far from catastrophic. In fact, two minor tweaks could easily propel this title into the company of an elite bunch. What has me really ecstatic, though, is by the end, the room is left for a sequel. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have beasts to kill."
“ The story is best described as a warm cup of hot chocolate that Mother made on a frigid, cold night. It’s a classic take on the fantastical, bathing in tropes and cliches. A little-known tidbit about me is that my favorite childhood JRPGs are both Lunar: Silver Star Story and Eternal Blue. I adore them, so when a game reminds me of the majesty and feeling I had when playing those, it’s a wrap”
Nuff said.
The Atlus RPG is the first PlayStation 5 title in eight months to take the top of the sales charts.
