BlazBlue: Continuum Shift 2 Extend (BBCSEX) is the latest addition to the critically acclaimed high definition 2D fighting series from the creators of Guilty Gear, Arc System Works. BlazBlue is well known for its deep story, unique characters, attractive world setting, impressive animations, outstanding graphics and its speedy stylish fighting. Beautiful hand-drawn 2D character graphics are combined with detailed 3D model stages to give users an impressive and unique fighting game experience.
BlazBlue: Continuum Shift 2 Extend will be the first portable high-resolution 2D fighter available. It will be in 960 x 544 resolution. That is 4 times the resolution of the PSP. With PS VITA’s high processing power, it will also have impressive special effects that use lots of particles. The astonishing graphics and high speed battles will be unrivalled by any other fighting game.
BlazBlue has broken out of the conventional 2D fighter screen ratio of 4:3. BlazBlue uses a 16:9 screen ratio giving players wider stages to play in. This adds to BlazBlue’s speedy fighting experience and allows players to run in and out of their opponent’s range. Players will be able to use attacks with ranges longer than ever before and blast enemies further away than usually possible.
BlazBlue: Continuum Shift Extend has been created so that it is easily accessible by novice players. Each character has a drive button (x button) that activates character specific special abilities. For example, Jin is capable of freezing his opponent whilst Ragna can steal his opponent’s life. As a result, unlike other fighters, novice players will be able to stash out impressive looking attacks as soon as they pick up the game. Experienced players will be able to take this to a further level by combining these drive attacks with other special moves to create impressive combos.
BlazBlue: Continuum Shift Extend will also introduce evasive manoeuvres and break falls. This will give players the opportunity to escape their opponent’s combos and even retaliate. Conventional fighters simply make use of invincibility to reset the situation but BlazBlue aims to give player’s more control.
Features:
- Touch panels – front and/or back. - This game will make use of the back touch panel. Users will be able to assign particular button combinations to the back touch panel. This allows players to easily execute commands such as throws (a+d).
- Cameras – front and/or back - This title will not make use of this function.
- Motion – Gyro/Accelerometer/Magnetometer - This title will not make use of this function.
- Online Gameplay and associated network and social networking features - Online Gameplay will involve Versus and Ranked.

Another great title for the VITA!
Great graphics and smooth animations have always been Blazblue's flagship qualities. To have them faithfully ported on that amoled screen, along with a lot of single-player content is truly a treat. As opposed to other fighters, Blazblue has a story (a bit too intricate, but at least it's got one) and going through all its chapters will take quite some time. Add to that Mars and Abyss modes, Arcade (which is not the story mode, albeit offering some hindsight as to the characters' backgrounds) and you've got a minimum of 20-30 hours of single-player content. And that's not including the multiplayer modes, obviously. A truly well-crafted game, quite technical yet accessible with attention to the often neglected single-player experience. With the pause function of the Vita, you will have no reason not to try it, especially at the current price. Last but not least, this is the latest, most comprehensive Blazblue release to date before Chrono Phantasma (due sometime next year). It is an excellent addition to your library!

The fighting begins
BlazBlue: Continuum Shift Extend is a fighting game which provides gorgeous graphics and stunning game play. I'm not going to lie, the game isn't easy for beginners and the tutorial alone isn't the easiest thing to do in the world. Once you get past that stage, you can expect thrilling fights with good music to top it off.
