The next title in the fighting game series from Arc has been on the horizon for a while, but we’ve finally gotten an idea of when players can get a hands-on test with the game. A GranBlue Fantasy Versus Rising Online Beta has just been announced! This is going to be an opportunity for players of the game to test out the new changes to the characters and moves ahead of the Granblue Fantasy Versus Rising release date.

This is what we know about the beta so far and if you can get access to the game early through this trial!

GranBlue Fantasy Versus Rising is an upcoming PS4 and PS5 fighting game from Arc System Works and Cygames. Developers behind the franchise have just announced a new GranBlue Fantasy Versus Rising Online Beta coming to the title. This is going to be a closed beta, so it won’t have fully open access. However, it doesn’t mean that players won’t be able to get in unless they’re basically pros.

Pre-registration has opened for the GranBlue Fantasy Versus Rising Online Beta on the official site. From July 5-16 you can sign up to try and get beta access. Then, the online beta will be available much more widely from July 28 to July 30! So, most players who want to will be able to try out the new title for a while.

If you’re more interested in seeing how the game compares to pro-level gameplay, we’ve already got a tournament on the horizon there. A side event at EVO 2023 is going to see pro players compete in a tournament on the open beta build. This is going to be our best look at how well-balanced the game is for competitive gameplay.

GranBlue Fantasy Versus Rising is following up on one of the best anime fighting games, so there’s some pressure on these early tests to deliver on another game in the series. Arc System Works have been on a hot streak lately though, so we’re sure the new GranBlue will live up to expectations!
