This game is twenty years old. Despite that, this game with Final Fantasy XIV is very successful and is in the same franchise. Final Fantasy XI is still receiving regular updates. In fact, in March 2022, an update went live that adapted to the Treant Ambuscade battles.
CyGames is a Japanese video game development studio founded in 2011 by CyberAgent. The company is mobile and e-commerce DeNA acquired a 24 percent stake in the studio in 2012.
CyGames holds several collaboration events on Granblue Fantasy with the intellectual property it has in the past. Recent examples of his collaboration events include crossovers with Gintama, Doraemon, and Uma Musume. Given its high fantasy setting, Final Fantasy XI's characters might not seem all that outlandish.
Granblue Fantasy is available worldwide on mobile devices and web browsers. Final Fantasy XI is also available on Windows PC.
