wait, Blaze Blue 4 ?

Stuart444 · Jul 12, 2015

New proper BB with hopefully an end to the story? (I want it done before sales tank enough that they stop making it >_> )

This news makes me very happy.

Blackage · Jul 12, 2015

Time to buy a new disc of Blazblue again!

CP Extend was PS4 so chances are this one will be too when it comes to consoles.

FINALLY!

End this storyline

Fake Edit: oh sh--it's Hibiki.

No Mai?

Chromax · Jul 12, 2015

I've bought every single release after the first BB thinking it's the final version.

Dremark · Jul 12, 2015

I'm down for this.

Arcade for now I guess.
But of course it will come to PS4, etc...

Chrono Phantasma Extend has been published on PS4 and XB1, so i guess this one will arrive too.

Shin · Jul 12, 2015

I'm surprised they didn't go with UE4/3D models like GG3rd, that's a lot of characters (or at least it looks like it).

I shouldn't get so hype so soon considering the arcade release then the JP release then the NA release (which I'll import) then the EU release (nope)

BlazBlue Chronophantasma Confirmed for PC.

Nine?

Does that mean she'll be playable? because if so, add freaking Jubei as well >.<

Will probably be DLC with a story addition added in a subsequent rerelease.

Tizoc · Jul 12, 2015

WHERE IS JUBEI?!?!!?

New characters are pretty meh, kinda bummed they're still using the same graphics engine/style but eh it cuts down on cost :V

Will wait for Extended ver. of this.

raven777 · Jul 12, 2015

I guess they are saving Jubei for the last one? (Assuming this one isn't the last one)

SliceSabre · Jul 12, 2015

Still waiting on Jubei.

Stuart444 · Jul 12, 2015

raven777 said:

Until we find out otherwise, I am hoping it's the last one of the current story at least. And like I said above...

Maybe Jubei will be DLC. I mean he's one of the most requested characters so being DLC/being in the next extended version with his own storyline doesn't seem far fetched tbh.

Isotope · Jul 12, 2015

Yoooooo, playable Nine? And the new characters looking like fun to play as. I think I'll wait for the Extend version this time around though (Unless I get weak and buy the JP version Day 1, which is likely ;_

MCD · Jul 12, 2015

still same graphics? thought guilty gear set a new standard.

Kysen · Jul 12, 2015

Disappointing, take away the hud and it looks exactly like CP. Was hoping for Xrd style 3d models

StayDead · Jul 12, 2015

Busaiku said:

My god. Could this be the perfect BB?

Stuart444 · Jul 12, 2015

I don't foresee a new style until the current Blazblue arc is completed. Then who knows, if they continue the series, maybe new cast with new art/graphical style and stuff?

We'll see.

Yeah that is disappointing.

Stuart444 · Jul 12, 2015

The Great Sage, Nine (she's a mage). One of the Six Heroes along with Jubei, Hakuman, Trinity, Valkenhayn and Terumi.

Probably doesn't mean much unless you played Continuum Shift (I forget how much about the Six Heroes was in Calamity Trigger)

I like you

Finally I will main Nine Kreygasm

Amedo310 · Jul 12, 2015

Oh shit. The main character from BB: Blood edge is in. Kurogane. So is there a chance of older clone Rachel to show up too.

Stuart444 · Jul 12, 2015

Also if anyone is just getting into the series, I recommend Blazblue: Chrono Phantasma Extend. It has an abridged version (very very abridged but covers the important points) of Calamity Trigger and Continuum Shift so you get the full picture/story more or less.

That said if you can wait/don't care too much, this one will probably get an extend version by 2018 (depending on when this one releases to consoles) that will probably have abridged version of CT, CS and CP.

Saikyo · Jul 12, 2015

Ugh still no Jubei, at least make him as dlc...

Now ASW can stop with the bullshit and port BBCPE now on steam.

The problem with doing that is they'd have to redo the entire cast. I expect them to do this at some point a game or two out but it will likely be a new BlazBlue from the ground up with less characters.

toddhunter · Jul 12, 2015

Well... that is a Blazblue game.

I'm guessing there may be a strong focus on the story/visual novel aspects or something?

There always has been, at least with the console versions.

i-Jest · Jul 12, 2015

So we can expect two more revisions before they move onto the final game? Also, I expect Jubei to be the last character added in the final game revision on this series.

There was enough that you knew who they were, I don't recall if they were all named at that point though, but you knew who they were as a group and who some of them were.

Just realistic, do you expect them to redraw +25 character or do them in ·D like Xrd?, that will take years and a lot of money to do.

"Central Fiction" is just ASW using the random generator game title, dont think much about it, maybe its a term to explain how some characters still exist in the game.

This will probably be the last game. Unfortunate we'll probably have to buy the GOTY edition for the exclusive character.

This is on track to be the final game in Ragna's story. Updated versions/an Extend edition could still happen, though.

If it's like the previous games, the title will play a role in the story.

But yeah, I've been waiting on a new BB since CP for story reasons.

With the the way CP ended with Ragna becoming the Blast Beast. I can't wait to see where they go with this
