Cygames has officially launched the highly anticipated Granblue Fantasy Grand Fes, starting today, March 17, 2025, at 19:00, and running until March 22, 2025, at 18:59. This exciting event will bring fresh content to the popular social game, introducing new characters and enhanced probabilities for players seeking rare equipment.
During the Grand Fes, the appearance rate for SS rare equipment through the Legend Gacha will be increased from the usual 3% to 6%, providing players with greater chances to obtain coveted items. This improved drop rate is valid until March 22, 2025, but be aware: the contents of the Legend Gacha will change after March 20, 2025, at 19:00. Players eager to maximize their chances should engage during the initial period between March 17 at 19:00 and March 20 at 18:59.
One of the focal points of this Grand Fes is the introduction of the new Light-attribute SS-rare character, Basara. Voiced by Atsushi Kisaichi, Basara, with his weapon, the Amagakure-no-tsurugi, exemplifies the traits of the characters fans cherish. The story potential surrounding Basara shines brightly, as players will explore his origin and experiences during the era of the Sky Wars through his Fate episode. Fans will be taken on a narrative adventure about how he earned his reputation as one of the strongest Twelve Divine Generals and what thoughts linger within his soul as he continues to observe the sky world.
Following closely is the dazzling Wind-attribute SS-rare character, Makira, appearing this time as her swimsuit version. Voiced by Mai Kadowaki, she brings refreshing energy and excitement to this event. A fun anecdote from her Fate episode features her desire to master swimming, as she invites the crew to Aloha for swimming practice. The story aims to reveal whether Makira can achieve her goal and why she finds such importance in learning how to swim.
Completing the trio of new characters is Lu-Oh, another mesmerizing addition, making his debut as the Earth-attribute SS-rare character, again as his swimsuit version. Voiced by Takuto Sato, Lu-Oh is set to captivate players as he navigates his dual role. A twist emerges from his tale, where he finds himself active as a beach lifeguard amid some innocent beach fun, showing his dedication to watching over the skies. Players will witness his selfless actions as he races to help when he hears the cry of young children who have fallen from their boat.
This year's Grand Fes not only showcases new character dynamics and enhanced gameplay experiences but also provides layered narratives and visual appeals. The tournament runs until March 22, ensuring fans have ample chances to participate.
