Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising just got even hotter. Cygames and Arc System Works have officially dropped Version 2.20, now live on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, and Steam, adding new playable content, a fan-favorite character, and exclusive crossovers.
Leading the charge is Wilnas, the fiery member of the Six Dragons, who now joins the GBVSR roster as a playable DLC character. Accompanying him are EX character versions of Gran, Djeeta, and Narmaya—giving longtime players new mechanics and playstyles to explore.
With fresh cosmetics, crossover content from Zombie Land Saga, and a new Premium Battle Pass, Version 2.20 is the most feature-packed update GBVSR has seen yet.
🐉 Wilnas Blazes Into Battle
Now available as DLC for $7.99, Wilnas—voiced by Xander Mobus (EN) and Masaaki Mizunaka (JP)—brings his flame-wielding fury and upbeat attitude to the battlefield. One of the legendary Six Dragons, Wilnas is a godlike force in dragon form, but appears in human guise to better understand skydwellers.
DLC Pack Includes:
- Playable Character: Wilnas
- Partner Avatar: Wilnas
- Exclusive Badge
- Weapon Cutout: Red King Crab
- Figure Studio Content: Poses (1–6) and Expressions (1–7)
- Bonus Items for the Granblue Fantasy mobile game (PlayStation only)
✨ EX Characters Debut: Gran, Djeeta & Narmaya
The update also introduces EX character versions of three mainstays—Gran, Djeeta, and Narmaya. These alternate versions feature entirely different mechanics, making them feel fresh while maintaining visual familiarity. Try them out to see how their gameplay strategies evolve!
⚠️ Note: EX characters cannot be used in Story Mode and share character level/rank with their base versions.
