Djeeta and Soriz join Granblue Fantasy Versus in new update

Soriz and Djeeta are now available to download for Granblue Fantasy Versus on PlayStation 4, with update 1.21 bringing in a number of tweaks too.

Djeeta is essentially the female version of main character Gran utilising sword-based attacks, while martial arts master Soriz uses his fists to take down opponents.

While the two new characters are available to download on PS4, they’ll be arriving later on 13th April for PC players.

You can purchase the characters individually or as part of the Granblue Fantasy character pass - which will also unlock previous DLC characters Beelzebub and Narmaya.

Their release coincides with new update 1.21, which brings in a number of character adjustments to fighters like Charlotta, Percival and more.

A bigger patch designed to address the game’s balance is expected when DLC character Zooey releases - which is expected later this month.

The full list of patch notes in update 1.21 (as translated by Eventhubs) are below.
