   It’s just been announced that publisher PQube will be bringing Arc System Works developed title BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger to the European regions in 2010. Why so late to the party? It’s got new stuff added for extra deliciousness!The European version of the title will be fully localized into English, German, French, Italian and Spanish and promises to include additional content in the standard edition such as:

   * Character strategy guide,

   * Music soundtrack,

   * New gameplay content not available anywhere, like new characters and moves.

   Hailed as the ‘game that every self-respecting console fighting fan should play’ BlazBlue scored pretty well upon its release back in June.

   This release also marks the beginning of a new partnership between PQube and Zen United. Dave Pain, from PQube, said “The long running 2D fighting genre has seen a welcome boost in 2009 with updated versions of several franchises brought to Next Gen PS3 and 360 consoles” and Tomo Ohno, Head of Zen United, reported “BlazBlue reached number 1 in the Japanese arcades and already sales of the Japanese and US console versions have beaten forecasts”.

   My take? Sure it sounds pretty far away but remember we are nearly half way through August! And with the promise of new characters, one of the major criticisms the title faced was its lack of that very same thing, means it’s a good enough reason to postpone picking this up until an official release hits!

   i find it odd that the announcement of new characters would come first from a European publisher.

   Bull. It's not true. Mainly because I also heard of another EU publisher for this game, too. And because new characters would ruin everything. That's a revision, not a "European version".

    No, I heard VirginPLAY was doing it.

    New characters ruin everything quite simply; the balance, the story mode, the voice-over work, the gallery, the online mode, all goes into an insane frenzy and breaks down with the addition of JUST ONE CHARACTER! Not to mention all the work that they have to do to make a character that is NOT A CLONE, and to introduce a new kind of play style. Plus, they can't add everyone! Valkenhayn, Hazama and Jubei are not exactly people who I'd want to be added in, and even they didn't, save it for an actual revision or a sequel, not for a regional version! It's bull -your mother is a classy lady-!

    I've beaten the story mode 100%, so now that a new character is coming, they obviously need their own story mode, and thus, it will add an additional 0% per new character, thus blocking me off from the ending once more until I can complete those.

    Bull -your mother is a classy lady- I say! Bull -your mother is a classy lady-!

    These "new" caracters could just be new Unlimited characters, y'know?

    Head in the clouds, feet on the ground and everything in between is somewhere I know not.

    I send mail and got answered

    Questions

    1) will I be able to play against European people/EU Version of BB with my American version? As you know alot of EU people imported from USA, online I see French, Spanish and Germans daily.
    2) will the new moves be for already present characters? If yes won't this lead to imbalance?
    3) Will new characters present imbalance ingame?
    4) Will new characters be added to USA Copy via DLC?

    Answers

    1) Unless they change their netcode, yes, should you be able to.

    2) We can't comment on this at this time. As soon as we know of more
    information, we'll announce it.

    3) We can't comment on this at this time. As soon as we know of more
    information, we'll announce it.

    My main priority is to know if the "new characters" will be as DLC for USA..

    Again,the new characters,like they said above,could just be the UNLIMITED ones...if that's so,calm the "NEKO PAAAANCH" down!...

    If they wanna put new charas...let em be Kokonoe,Terumi or Jyuubei (Jyuubei = KLIFF from GGXX,i dont care if its small and overpowered,HE'S THE BEST CHARA EVER!!!!)

    I FEEL YOU BROTHER I FEEL YOU!!!!

    God I pray they don't add anything that we didn't get here (the US I mean)
    We already have to import a few thing from Japan just because we didn't get them here. For the love of Hakumen!! PLZ dont do this ti us.

    This is for that tuna!!!
