Tekkaman Blade Joins Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars

As opposed to the original Japanese release Cross Generation of Heroes, Ultimate All-Stars is missing Hakushon Daimao, whose absence will be made up for with extra characters — each from Tatsunoko and Capcom. One of these new characters is Tekkaman Blade. The others are set to be revealed at TGS this year. (Come on, Strider!!)

Take a look at Tekkaman Blade’s special moves.

The character reveal in Famtisu also confirms Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars is heading to Japan. Over there, it’s an updated re-release since Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Cross Generation of Heroes came out last year. Aside from a cast shuffling, Ultimate All-Stars adds online play. Capcom hasn’t said anything about international online play or WiiSpeak support.
