<p>Granblue Fantasy Versus is getting more new content tomorrow, however, it&#8217;s not just a new character or stage. The new content comes in the form of a battle pass system and loot boxes in a future update.</p>
<p>Previously, we covered Belial&#8217;s release and the start of Season 2 here at BagoGames. If you&#8217;d like to read about him and the new season, you can do so right <a href="https://bagogames.com/granblue-fantasy-versus-version-1-40-and-belial-revealed/">here</a>.</p>

<h3 style="text-align: center;">What These Battle Passes and Loot Boxes Are</h3>
<p>Going off of a tweet from the English Granblue development team, coming soon, Granblue Fantasy Versus will get a Battle Pass system stylized like Fortnite or Apex Legends. You can view that tweet below.</p>

<p lang="en" dir="ltr">2.22 will have a Battle Pass that will work like other games&#39; Battle Passes with leveling rewards for playing for free, and extra rewards for the Premium pass. Coming late this month. <a href="https://t.co/qWeq5cCs6C">pic.twitter.com/qWeq5cCs6C</a></p>

<p>For those unaware of a Battle Pass, you get progressively rarer rewards the higher your Battle Pass level is. There&#8217;s also two versions, a free version, and a Premium version (which usually contains more items on level up). The pricing of the Premium version has not been disclosed at this time.</p>
<p>As for Loot Boxes, you pay a currency to get a series of items at random. Mostly, these are cosmetic. The thing is, loot boxes were TECHNICALLY already in the game, in the game&#8217;s usually-forgotten RPG Mode. However, over there, it was in a much more limited quantity (getting items for progression or weapon skins only).</p>
<p>That being said, this game seems like it&#8217;s shamelessly monetizing the hell out of itself with practices like these. Like, what purpose does a Battle Pass system serve for a fighting game? Almost none whatsoever. Granblue Fantasy Versus is available now on <a href="https://store.playstation.com/en-us/product/UP1023-CUSA17197_00-ENGBVSPRD0000001">PlayStation 4</a> and PC via <a href="https://store.steampowered.com/app/1090630/Granblue_Fantasy_Versus/">Steam</a>.</p>
<p><strong>What do you think about the Granblue Fantasy Versus Battle Pass? Do you think it&#8217;s necessary? Or do you think there&#8217;s no place for this system here? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section below.</strong></p>
