BlazBlue Chronophantasma Shows Off Its Cruelest Character

Yuki Terumi, the true form of Hazama, is playable for the first time in BlazBlue: Chronophantasma. He can use his Force Eater drive skill to siphon Heat Gauge meter from other players. This will give Yuki a chance to do one of his four Distortion Drives. Yuki's overdrive Nightmare Reaper enhances the effect of his drive attack and the power of his Distortion Drives.

BlazBlue: Chronophantasma continues the game's plot with a focus on the Six Heroes. Yuki Terumi was once part of this group along with Valkenhayn, Trinity, and Nine. Celica, Nine's younger sister that specializes in healing magic, shows up in the BlazBlue games for the first time. Celica is the main character in BlazBlue: Phase 0 and Chronophantasma will cover some of the novel like when Celica meets Ranga the Bloodedge. BlazBlue: Chronophantasma will link the novels and game story together through Celica who is searching for the Ikaruga in Chronophantasma.

BlazBlue: Chronophantasma will be available in Japan on October 24 and is slated for release in North America early next year.
