BlazBlue Continuum Shift Sequel Announced

BlazBlue series producer Mori Toshimichi recently teased that a BlazBlue arcade announcement of some form would be coming at next month's Amusement Machine Show. Arc System Works has since confirmed that the announcement is BlazBlue Continuum Shift II.

That's right, there's a sequel to Continuum Shift on the way for arcade goers. Currently, all that's known is that the game will run on Taito's Type X2 arcade board, will have a standard 8-way lever and 4 button control scheme, and will hit arcades this Winter.

Holy crap that was fast. And here I was about to pick up Continuum Shift...

Method5733d ago

Just to clarify, Continuum Shift 2 is an arcade-only release to get the year-old arcade version up to date with all the new DLC coming out on consoles.

Naughty Dog5733d ago (Edited 5733d ago )

Cantinuum Shift 2? why not BlazBlue 3? probably just balancing the game and adding more characters and stages but no new mechanics just like SSFIV... too soon.

Baka-akaB5733d ago

You dont get it , and it's thanks to the stupid article's title .

It's an arcade release of the console version+its dlc characters .

Spaghett5733d ago

Shit, I haven't played the others ones yet but I guess I might as well just wait longer.

I spooked ya!

Nihilism5733d ago

Hopefully this comes on launch day this time.

Simon_Brezhnev5733d ago (Edited 5733d ago )

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle10d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

DarXyde17d ago

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

Soy17d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.

PlayStation legend Shuhei Yoshida says Jim Ryan fired him because he didn't listen to him

Why did Sony push Shuhei Yoshida out of his role leading PlayStation's first-party games? He'd overseen some huge successes. Well, apparently, he didn't listen.

Yeah I can see that for sure. Shuhei Yoshida should have been in charge not Jim Ryan.

Cacabunga18d ago

It should be free highway for him now.. but Sony are too stupid to see this, especially that moron Hulst

S2Killinit18d ago (Edited 18d ago )

Wtf why all that anger. PlayStation is dominating on every level. Besides I think there is a little more to hiring a CEO than just who is available. Its not like its a athlete your team wants to buy.

neutralgamer199218d ago

S2Killinit

live service failures, chasing trends, closing studios. yes dominating

Cacabunga17d ago

Sony is Dominating because competition is not existing. Compared to previous gens this is the poorest in terms of software offerings.

Last gen we got Uncharted 4 Lost Legacy and TLOU2 from ND alone.

This is so far a remasters gen, with no competition to lift up the quality

1nsomniac17d ago (Edited 17d ago )

..."PlayStation is dominating on every level"....

...Really???

PlayStation are soon heading into a new generation in the not to distant future. They currently have the worst customer satisfaction they've ever sustained as a company. The company is heading for a huge crash while at the same time they'll need to be planning how they are going to try and win back that favour and the build up to their new releases.

Yes financially they're winning but they're going to have to ride out this complete public corporate disaster. No one has faith in the company or the product anymore. They've damaged their public image so much this generation. Greed can kill anyone.

medman17d ago

Hulst is a disaster......

He would've done the same thing and fire Jim Ryan and Shuhei would be the villain. Why?
Because Elite creates the narrative and distraction for gamers, users and citizens.

Outside_ofthe_Box18d ago

More confirmation that Jim Ryan is the culprit for what has happened to Sony. Hulst needs to go too. What sucks is that a lot of the good top heads at Sony are no longer there. I wish that guys that were forced out prematurely by Dumbo Jimbo like Shuhei and Layden came back.

robtion17d ago

Yep. Yoshida was responsible for bringing one of the best games of this generation to playstation (Stellar Blade). He is an actual gamer and is in touch with what gamers want (creative, fun games, not GaaS and agenda pushing). He also seems like a genuinely nice guy if you watch some interviews. Of course they got rid of him.

darthv7218d ago

Makes you wonder if MS even thought about hiring him after Phil and Sarah were leaving. He certainly couldn't make their situation any worse.

Agent7518d ago

Microflop. After Windows XP and Xbox 360, it all went floppy.

S2Killinit18d ago

Floppy 😆
No pun intended

badz14918d ago

Yoshida for President! Jim Ryan was and always be a hack! Sony should get Shu back

Lightning7718d ago

All the gamer/consumer lead heads are gone across PS and Xbox. shuhei gone phil's gone (questionable) but gone. The future of gaming is somewhat uncertain across the board.
