Several genres come to mind for me as summertime games, like the ever-engaging "car game." Something filled with little meters to fill and goals to accomplish, with some good action and splashy graphics to keep battles lively. For me, that's Granblue Fantasy: Relink in a nutshell; yet, the first time around, I didn't really spend much time with it.
This summer, though, Cygames is launching what could easily be called an expansion to Relink, dubbed "Endless Ragnarok." But as I quickly learned in my demo appointment, it is much, much more than that. New characters and missions abound, but there are also big quality-of-life upgrades, new ways to play old characters, new platforms in the Switch 2, and even crossplay support.
After our duo-demo at Summer Game Fest 2026, I invited former Game Informer editor and current Restart.run editor Imran Khan (who wrote our original review of Relink) onto this New Gameplay Today to talk about everything: our demo impressions, our group Q+A with the leads behind Endless Ragnarok, and what we think of this big update. Check it all out here:
