Want to know which characters are available this week in Granblue Fantasy Versus Rising's free version? Then stick around to find out.

GBVSR is the latest fighting game to catch the attention of the FGC and newcomers to the genre alike. In a year which gave us Street Fighter 6 and Mortal Kombat 1, the developers have made the interesting decision to release a free version.

We're not talking about a traditional demo, in this free edition of Granblue Fantasy Versus Rising you'll get access to the vast majority of key features including training mode, online matches (both ranked and casual), and even full access to Gran Bruise Legends! an in-game Fall Guys clone.

Of course, there are a few caveats as no story mode and a limited selection of characters you can try. Still, it's an amazing way to try out the game before you pull the trigger on buying the complete version.

In this guide, we'll detail the playable characters in the free edition of GBVSR and when you can expect them to change it up.
