Originally leaked by Amazon.com this morning, video game publisher Aksys Games has confirmed that the company will be releasing the BlazBlue-based visual novel XBlaze Code: Embryo on the PlayStation 3 and PS Vita this summer. Amazon currently has the game set for release on June 24 at $39.99.
Blazblue anime adaptation and home console version of Blazblue Chronophantasm have been announced.
Gothic lolita? Check. Cat girl? Check. Mecha musume? Double check! AkSys Games comes back with the next iteration in the BlazBlue franchise, BlazBlue: Continuum Shift. Anyone who has played an Arc System Works fighting game will tell you that every detail has been fine tuned, making the most enjoyable and unique game possible. Continuum Shift is no different and builds upon the success of BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger to bring us yet another quality fighting game.
Are you a BlazBlue fan? Will you be in Southern California on November 14th? Are you tired of v-13 players mashing on and breaking the D button? Then head out to Active Gamers LA's Triple Threat tournament, which will feature the new BlazBlue: Continuum Shift. Not only can you be amongst the first to try the game, but Aksys Games will be on site to hand out free schwag as well! Hit the jump for more.
(Update: John Nelson of Active Gamers LA has just informed us that there were some technical difficulties with the last build of BlazBlue: Continuum Shift Aksys Games had; as a result, BlazBlue: Continuum Shift is not 100% confirmed at Triple Threat, but both Aksys Games and Active Gamers LA will do their best to bring the game out for fans at Triple Threat.)
The first high definition 2D fighting game, BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger is the spiritual successor to Guilty Gear; it features the same producer, designer, and music composer as its predecessor. Can it compete against other fighting games like this year's Street Fighter IV? Read this review to find out.
In the world of hardcore fighting games, everyone has heard of Guilty Gear. We got a chance to sit down with Daisuke Ishiwatari, often credited as one of the creators of Guilty Gear, and Toshimichi Mori, character designer and one of the creators for BlazBlue.
After a quick introduction of Daisuke Ishiwatari, the original creator of Guilty Gear and composer for BlazBlue's music, and Toshimichi Mori, a producer for several of the past Guilty Gears and BlazBlue, the panel went straight into a Q&A with the fans and the two guests.
