Fighting game festival at the end of April 2024“EVO Japan 2024”was held.
As fighting gamers gathered from all over the world, I was at the Cygames booth exhibiting at this event.Try playing “Granblue Fantasy Versus -Rising-“.New characters that are downloadable content“Beatrix”I've played with it, so I'd like to share my impressions with you! In addition, since we are using the PS5 controller (DualSense) this time, the command notation will also be compliant with the PS console version and the default button layout.

“Clock O Delta” shines in its simplicity that anyone can understand.
First, press 236 + □, △, 〇 or R1 button to exit.“Star Chaser”.A simple projectile that emits an aura in front of you. The stretch changes depending on the strength of the button. The judgment is quite large, but it may be a little slow.
Next, press 623 + □, △, 〇 or 6 + R1 button to exit.“Sword of Embrusk”.It's an anti-aircraft technique where you jump up with your sword held high. It also performs as it looks. Use it for getting up, anti-air, or finishing off a combo.
Then press 214+□・△・〇 or 4+R1 button to exit“Thunderbird”.This is a technique where you jump a little and then descend while charging forward. It's a technique that looks like it's going to be deadly, closing the gap while avoiding the opponent's ground attacks.
Exit with 22+□・△・〇 or 2+R1 button“Riding Free”. This is a pure lunging technique that crawls on the ground. Follow-up attacks are also possible by inputting additional information when hit.

And the mystery“Immortal Assault”is also equipped. This is a simple technique that cuts forward and deals great damage, and is also neat and easy to use.
From what I've seen so far, it seems like she's a straight forward character with no quirks, but what's noteworthy is her special skill “Nothing is Forever” and her subsequent attacks.“Clock O Delta”condition.
By pressing the X button, you can launch a command throw in front of you (I felt it was a little slow to launch, so it might be dangerous to fire it too often). If this is successful or Beatrix's HP drops below 30%, she will be granted Clock-O-Delta.
If you hit the H version ability in this state,The opponent character is slowed and can pursue a follow-up attack.It becomes. In other words, if you successfully perform a command throw, you will be in a “clock-o-delta” state, and you will be able to forcibly extend the combo from the center!
This performance truly embodies what it means to be a woman who is strong in adversity. In fact, just having a command throw as a standard character is pretty villainous! ?
It's still in the trial stage, so there may be some adjustments to be made when it comes to actual play, but I feel like he's already going to become a popular character.
“Granblue Fantasy Versus -Rising-” is currently being distributed as a download-only title for PS5/PS4/PC (Steam). “Beatrix”, a downloadable content character, is scheduled to be distributed from late May 2024. looking forward to!
