By Arc System Works updated BlazBlue’s release date from sometime this summer to June 25 in Japan. BlazBlue made its debut in arcades last November giving arcade owners a cushy eight months of exclusivity.
The console version has a single player story mode, more music, and online play via a lobby system. Aksys will release BlazBlue for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 this summer too, but haven’t set a specific date. Since the game will be ready in June BlazBlue could have a sales battle with the King of Fighters XII. Ignition will publish SNK’s fighting game in July.
