Yeah, the trailer at least shows a 2018 release for Granblue. Haven't seen any news on it being pushed back.

This will absolutely be massive for PS4 in Japan. Over 20 million players and they are dedicated as hell as to this game and I'm sure Cygames will market the shit out of it with Sony.

Werent you recently arguing that Pokemon Lets Go wouldnt attract Go players because its a free game on smartphones vs a $60 game on a $300 console, what maked Granblue on PS4 any different?

Granblue has waifus. The desire to see waifus in high resolution 3d models is very strong, specially in Japan. Pokemon Go was fueled by nostalgia. GBF is a modern series. And if you want to talk spending, GBF wipes the floor with Pokemon Go in Japan, so it has a much higher chance of people shelling out cash to see their waifus.
