- Added Oceania as a selectable server in online Ranked and Casual Matches.
- Network Region can also be changed in System Settings.
- Added a network quality indicator (RTT) to the pop-up confirmation prior to Ranked and Casual Matches.
(Due to the nature of rollback netcode, a basic antenna icon like the one used in the previous title, Granblue Fantasy: Versus, does not relay enough information regarding network quality, so we have opted to display the RTT millisecond value instead.)

- Fixed an issue where if an opponent is using Lunalu in an online match, their character level would display as 0.
- Fixed an issue where if the player had crossplay turned off in System Settings and had Casual and Ranked Match entry settings set to Same Platform, the settings would not be reflected and matchmaking would continue to match with players on other platforms.
- Fixed an issue where inputting certain keys on a keyboard on certain stages would cause an application error.
Story

System

|---|---|
| Close-Range Standing | Extended the reach for some characters so that they’re less likely to whiff. |

| Added Input Buffering | Added input buffering for inputs during a crouching Inputs can be buffered during crouching hitstop. |
| Input Buffering Leniency | Input buffering upon wake-up, landing after mid-air recovery, and grounded recovery have been extended by two frames. |
| Block Button | Fixed an issue where pushing the block button simultaneously upon landing after a jump would allow the player to attack 1 frame early. |
| Technical Inputs | Fixed an issue where after performing the skill with a technical input, if the next skill was performed with a simple input, the damage buff for technical inputs would still be applied. |
Lancelot
| Issue | Details |
|---|---|
| Crouching | Fixed some animations. Hitboxes and other battle properties are unaffected. |

| Anzünden | Fixed an issue where the skill would repeat its cooldown after the bed of flames wears off. |
Ladiva
| Issue | Details |
|---|---|
| Headbutt of Love | Fixed an issue where after guard point is activated against a projectile, the SBA gauge would fill normally, but during a clash, the SBA gauge wouldn’t fill. Note that the SBA gauge only fills once each for guard point and a clash. |

|---|---|
| Spectral Dive | Fixed an issue where if used right before landing, skills and Skybound Arts performed would go in the wrong direction. |

| Resolute Strike (Midair) | Removed the “Invincible!” pop-up due to the property only being in effect during the skill’s activation cutscene. |
Narmaya
| Issue | Details |
|---|---|
| Butterfly Effect | Fixed an issue where when evading a Raging Strike, performing Butterfly Effect during the evade would cause Butterfly Effect to activate again after the evade.

Cagliostro
| Issue | Details |

|---|---|
| Voidlight Erasure | Grimnir can no longer block midair until he lands after the skill. |
| Wind Crest (Midair) | In order to fix an issue where the SBA gauge would be depleted but a crest would not appear if used just before landing from a jump, Grimnir now won’t land until the skill finishes. |
| Gale Dash (Grace of the Radiant Version) | In order to fix an issue where the Grace of the Radiant gauge would not deplete if a Gale Dash was performed while atop a Wind Crest, an upper limit has been set to the number of midair Gale Dashes Grimnir can do during Grace of the Radiant. The upper limit is equivalent to the same amount when depleting Wind Crests. (Gale Dashes that consume crests remain unchanged.)
