Newly announced is the latest arcade Blazblue which introduces 3 new characters to the fight. It releases late this year.

So...ArcSys listened to fans and removed clothes from Noel? I guess Tsubaki will be next.
And, oh, look: no Lambda or Nu. Guess the next trailer will all be about her.

Fantastic news. I'd been wondering when a new BlazBlue was going to come out.

According to Magicbox's newsfeed, Sega has announced a PS3 version will arrive in Japan this Winter

Arcade and PS3 version seem to be scheduled simultaneously. Famitsu has a preview in their latest number (something I'll track down while I'm in Japan) with only the PS3 being listed as a target home platform...which might mean that Chrono Phantasma won't be out on the X360 in Japan.
The online mode will be revamped, according to the interview in Famitsu to Mori (the series producer).
4 Gamer has a glimpse of the game. I wonder where they'll put Lamba/Nu and Mu (Mu's theorically dead but Nu was regenerating in a Cauldron at the end of Continuum Shift's timeline).

Andriasang: "Development on the home version of Chrono Phantasma is currently at 30%, Famitsu says. The home version is date TBA. The arcade version was announced late last week with a winter release time frame."

At first I was like "jesus christ." And then I watched the PV..

God damn it Arc System. I like how there was no new gameplay for Hakumen in the PV though.

Interesting to know that Amane is a trap, just like Bridget.

its actually proper sequel isent it ? ...seem to recall reading some where all characters are redone

[speedlolita]

A few characters seems changed, there seems to be new moves from some of the people and there's three new characters.

Looks good so far.
