A BlazBlue Title is Coming to the Nintendo Switch

Unlike Ultra Street Fighter II: The Final Challengers, which was briefly shown in the Nintendo Switch presentation, there’s another fighting game name that quietly popped up on the Nintendo website.

The above image displays a number of third party titles coming to Nintendo’s new console, some of them teased previously. Among them is the logo for Arc System Works’ BlazBlue franchise. There’s no official information from Arc System Works other than this mysterious Taokaka tweet, so a release date is anyone’s guess. Most likely, it’s going to be the current fighting game Central Fiction, though the series has numerous spin-offs by now–like a beat ’em up Android mobile game.

BlazBlue titles also tend to come out on the PlayStation Vita after releasing on Sony’s stationary console, but it seems that Arc System Works has made the… Switch.

Two-player BlazBlue anywhere sounds rad, provided that the Joy Cons feel right, or fight stick support comes to the Switch.
