Michael Kitchin writes, "Granblue Fantasy: Relink delivers a very polished experience with a main story that packs plenty of momentum. Combat is very kinetic but simple to handle. Perhaps that's detrimental when boss fights stretch into long encounters but the chaotic spectacle is thankfully easy to read. It's a shame the side content retreads old haunts and the post-game becomes a repetitive grind. What's here is a decent package but I wish the combat had a few more options to explore."
Granblue Fantasy: Relink update version 1.3.0 new content will include a new playable character, Photo Mode, new control schemes and more.
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.
