February 9, 2010 - Word of a console version of
BlazBlue Continuum Shift leaked out last week. Today, thanks to the source of the original leak, Famitsu, we got confirmation. The arcade BlazBlue sequel is coming to PS3 and Xbox 360.
The home version will feature all the new additions to the arcade version, including playable Tsubaki Yayoi and Hazama. Players can also look forward to a new character, u-12 (myu-12), and new stages.
Modes of play for this second console BlazBlue include a strategic Legion Mode where you face off against enemies on a map, and a fully voiced tutorial mode. Newcomers will be able to select a Beginners control option, which simplifies special move input. The game's network mode is also seeing various as-yet unspecified improvements.
BlazBlue Continuum Shift hits the Japanese PS3 and Xbox 360 this summer. An international release has yet to be announced.
I think Atlus hinted last year that a BB sequel was in the works..Dope fighter.
