Arc System Works, the company behind the Guilty Gear series and the much more recent BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger, has good news 2D fighting game fanatics -- particularly those who enjoyed BlazBlue. They've announced in the latest issue of Famitsu that an update/sequel for BlazBlue called "Continuum Shift" is in development.

 Most, if not all, limited editions usually add around US$ 10 to a game's retail price. Not so with Arc System Works' home console versions of BlazBlue. See, Aksys is taking different approach. Instead of charging a premium for the limited edition, those who pre-order the game will get it for free.

If you're more into 2D fighting games as opposed to 3D ones, then you'll be glad to know that Guilty Gear series creator Arc System Works' BlazBlue arcade fighter has been confirmed for a console release in the latest issue of Famitsu. Details on the console versions after the jump.
