Blazblue hasn’t had a brand new preventing recreation since 2018 with Blazblue Cross Tag Battle, and followers have been determined for any new replace. It appears the monkey paw could also be curling a finger as we communicate, as Adi Shankar (director of the lately launched Satan Might Cry collection) has posted the collection’ brand on his Twitter.
This put up does not truly announce something, it is a PNG ripped from Google. However with a collection so absent of stories or updates as Blazblue, this has turn into the most important story in months for followers. The brand new Satan Might Cry collection, as horrendous as it’s, might act as an unwell omen for these ravenous avid gamers.
For individuals who do not know what Blazblue is, I can not actually blame you. It is a comparatively area of interest recreation inside a distinct segment style. Created by Arc System Works, the sport attracted a neighborhood of followers attributable to its fast-paced gameplay, depth, and anime artwork model. Over time it is gained a loyal following of gamers who love the video games and the story advised all through the collection. Nevertheless, Arc System Works has spent latest years centered on different IP like Responsible Gear, Dragon Ball, and extra.
So whereas an adaptation is not inherently dangerous information, Shankar’s latest work on Satan Might Cry has some anxious. That collection takes… liberties with the supply materials. As such, taking a story hammer to Blazblue and its story is not precisely what lots of followers can be in search of.
The response to this put up has been amusing although. Majin Obama, preventing recreation content material creator and match organizer, inspired Shankar to look into Responsible Gear Attempt as an alternative. This, one assumes, was not carried out with variety intentions at coronary heart. One other X consumer cifers wrote “That is my private 9/11”, which just about sums up the reception to the idea of a Blazblue adaptation below Shankar.
Typically dying is a mercy, particularly with regards to video video games. However what do you assume? Would you be curious to see a Blazblue adaptation? Or are you simply right here for the chaos? Tell us beneath!
