BlazBlue Continuum Shift (By Rebecca "Bonks" Rothschild)


2-D fighting fans rejoice, Aksys Games has the wheel of fate turning once again with BlazBlue: Continuum Shift. BlazBlue happens to be a Sugar Gamers favorite, and our ladies can seriously dominate. Bright colors, several characters resembling some of your favorite anime stars, it’s all there plus a few extras this round.


The biggest and most talked about addition is the new characters, three new characters to be exact. Starting with an elusive performer by the name of Hazama has stepped onto the scene.
?-12 is a big ball of surprise and mystery and then there’s the new lady knight Tsubaki, no doubt she’ll be a cos play favorite sporting her beautiful armor. In all honesty I was expecting a few more characters but there is always the unknown of the unlockables and of course secret achievements.

Continuum Shift also comes with a vast list of new moves, and not just for the new characters. There was also the implementation of the Tutorial and Beginner Modes. This will enable noobs to throw down super mega combos in no time. The challenge mode offers player specific missions and combos. Legion Mode is the one I am most interested in. You can take over the map by defeating and recruiting enemies, I’m excited to see if they can pull this off and if fans will enjoy it. Online play will also available with match making and party chat, as well as the ability to observe matches.

The game will be available for Xbox 360 and PS3 this summer.
