Granblue Fantasy Relink Endless Ragnarok Review Is In
Granblue Fantasy: Relink's Endless Ragnarok expansion, out July 9, nearly doubles the base game's content and adds a roguelite endgame critics love.
Granblue Fantasy Relink's Endless Ragnarok Is Endgame Heaven
Okay, co-op action-RPG fans, clear your calendar. On July 9, 2026, Cygames dropped Endless Ragnarok, the big expansion for the gloriously flashy *Granblue Fantasy: Relink*, and the reviews are basically a group hug. Landing across PS4, PS5, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC, it does the thing every great expansion should: it takes what the base game already nailed and cranks it to eleven.
- Release date: July 9, 2026, on PS4, PS5, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC
- Content: Nearly doubles the base game's content — new story arc, characters, bosses, and craftable weapons
- New systems: "Master Traits" character progression and the roguelite endgame mode "The Conflux"
- Reception: Critics broadly call it one of the best co-op action RPGs on the market right now
The Conflux Is the "Just One More Run" Machine
The headline addition is The Conflux, a brand-new roguelite endgame mode that reviewers keep singling out as the star of the show. It is built around that dangerous "just one more run" loop — you dive in, stack up power, chase better gear, and suddenly it is 2 a.m. Combined with new higher-difficulty quest tiers and fresh bosses, it gives *Relink*'s already-addictive endgame a serious jolt of longevity. Fans who devoted hundreds of hours to the base game now have a proper reason to come back.
What Are Master Traits?
The other big swing is Master Traits, a new character progression system that meaningfully shakes up how your roster plays. Unlocked once Endless Ragnarok proper begins, traits come in three styles, and activating at least three related passives grants powerful boons that actually alter a character's playstyle rather than just nudging numbers. Add new summon mechanics and expanded co-op missions that reward real team coordination, and you have a build-crafting playground that pairs nicely with the game's spectacle. If you love a good loot-and-tinker loop, it is catnip — and it lands in a summer that has been kind to co-op and community game updates.
Should You Jump Back In?
Critics are candid that the new story is light — forgettable, even — but they are near-unanimous that it does not matter, because Endless Ragnarok is all about the *doing*. Great presentation, deep combat, and that endless endgame loop make it well worth the price for anyone who adored *Relink*. Built on a tight two-year development turnaround, it is a generous, content-rich expansion and one of 2026's easiest recommendations for the co-op crowd. Catch the rest of our gaming coverage for more of the summer's best.
