Game news This video game was still unknown a week ago and it has become one of the most played action role-playing games on Steam, Monster Hunter fans are in for a treat
This is one of Steam’s big surprises: a game from a little unknown in the West finds itself in the top of the most played titles on the platform.
Granblue Fantasy Relink is the surprise of the start of the year on Steam. Indeed, at home, if we know the Granblue Fantasy license well only in the style of fighting games, we recently discovered it under the sign of a premium J-RPG intended for current media. The success is clear, the game is in the top 3 best-selling titles on Steam.
A success for a first in Europe
Granblue Fantasy Relink is currently in the top 3 of Steam sales according to SteamDB. Since its release (and again according to SteamDB), the title has managed to maintain the symbolic number of 100,000 simultaneous players with a peak at 114,000 on the launch weekend, surpassing direct competitors like Persona 3 Reload and Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth . A success which can be explained, even if the title is not available here, by the large number of Granblue Fantasy players on mobile.
One of the great arguments of this title is also that it offers an online cooperative multiplayer mode so you can play with your friends. The fights pique the curiosity of Monster Hunter fans; since they focus on defeating enemies in a loop and with friends to improve your equipment. It is even recommended to carry out the so-called “post game” missions with several people in order to make the confrontations easier. Add to that very glowing reviews, despite complicated development, and the game is a great success.
Impressive content
Granblue Fantasy Relink also owes its success to colossal content. An impressive lifespan, it takes 25 hours to complete the main story, and double that to take care of the side quests. The multiplayer mode allows you to push the experience up to around 100 hours of play. Fast-paced battles feature non-stop action where you control one character in your party and the others are led by the AI or your friends. In addition to the 18 fighters available which all have different gameplay, and 8 which will arrive in the next updates, free DLC is also planned in the future. Despite everything, the multitude of protagonists and enemies can sometimes make the fights a little messy. In short, Granblue Fantasy Relink already has significant content and it will increase further in the future.
