Editions are the easiest place to make an expensive mistake. Endless Ragnarok is sold both as a complete bundle for new players and as an upgrade kit for players who already own Granblue Fantasy: Relink. The product name matters more than the art, trailer, or price: if the listing says upgrade kit, it expects the base game on the same platform.
Which Product Should You Buy?
Start from ownership, not hype. A new player needs a bundle that includes the base game. An existing owner needs an upgrade kit on the same storefront as the base copy. A player who wants cosmetic or bundled extras can move from standard to special after that decision is already correct.
| Player situation | Safest choice | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Completely new player | Standard Edition | It includes the base game and Endless Ragnarok upgrade kit without forcing the higher-price extras. |
| New player who wants all bundled extras | Special Edition | The higher price is justified only if the Special Pack and DLC Collection are wanted up front. |
| Existing Relink owner | Upgrade Kit Standard Edition | Store copy says the upgrade kit is for players who already own Relink and must match the same platform. |
| Existing owner who wants the special pack | Upgrade Kit Special Edition | It adds the Special Pack while still following the same-platform upgrade rule. |
| Friend group split across platforms | Each player buys on their own platform first | Crossplay helps multiplayer after purchase, but it does not transfer store ownership between accounts. |
Edition Comparison
The four products below answer different buyer profiles. Use the checklists before comparing extras. A special edition can be a good value for a player who wants its bundled content, but it is not the correct fix for an existing owner who only needs access to the expansion.
Endless Ragnarok Standard Edition
New players who do not own Relink.
- You do not already own Relink on this platform
- You want the base game and expansion in one purchase
- You do not need the extra Special Edition bundle content
Risk:Existing owners can waste money here if they only need the upgrade kit.
Endless Ragnarok Special Edition
New players who also want the bundled extra content.
- You are new to Relink
- You want the Special Pack and DLC Collection
- The higher price is justified by extras, not just the expansion itself
Risk:The extra content is the reason to buy this version; gameplay access alone does not require the Special Edition.
Upgrade Kit Standard Edition
Existing Relink owners who only need the expansion upgrade.
- Your base Relink copy is on the same store account
- You only need expansion access
- You do not care about the Special Pack
Risk:Buying this on the wrong platform will not upgrade a base copy owned elsewhere.
Upgrade Kit Special Edition
Existing Relink owners who want the special pack.
- You already own Relink on the same platform
- You want the Special Pack
- You understand this is still an upgrade kit, not a second base-game bundle
Risk:This is the expensive route for existing owners; choose it for the extras, not because the standard upgrade is incomplete.

Pre-Purchase Checklist
Before paying, open the listing from the account that owns or will own Relink. Confirm the platform label, confirm whether the product includes the base game, and confirm whether the listing is a bundle or upgrade kit. Keep crossplay separate from ownership: crossplay helps friends play together after purchase, but it does not move a Steam, PlayStation, or Nintendo license between stores.
If the player is still unsure, the safest route is to play the demo first. A demo session answers the question that a product table cannot: whether the combat rhythm, camera pressure, party readability, and boss pacing feel good enough to justify buying into the full expansion.
