BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle 2.0 Update Adding Nine DLC Fighters This November

Nooooooo. Senran Kagura and RWBY characters do not belong in the same game.

Every time I see this game and RWBY it makes me wish for a RWBY RPG or action RPG. On Switch.

@ALinkttPresent why not?

So many characters, yet still no Arcade Mode to use them in.

@Heavyarms55 because the Senran Kagura series is really inappropriate. Persona is also rated M, but it’s not quite the same. I just feel like a crossover game that didn’t have characters from Senran Kagura in it before should suddenly have them added. Even if it’s just the character and none of the actual inappropriate content, I’m sure there are players who already own Blazblue Cross Tag Battle that aren’t okay with what the SK series represents.

If Yumi got into Cross Tag Battle then Asuka would be in Smash.

@ALinkttPresent I could say the same thing about Bayonette being in Smash.

@ALinkttPresent Kinda egotistical thinking I would say. Just because you don't think it's appropriate or like what it represents doesn't make that a fact. Not you, nor anyone else are obligated to buy the DLC. And even then, playing the character doesn't make you obligated to play the Senran Kagura games themselves. It's a game about beating each other into a bloody mess - if not killing the opponent in every match. Like all fighting games of this sort. Kind of absurd that a fanservice character is what offends anyone more than glorified murder.

Oh great, more waiting for characters that should have been in the game at, or at least much closer to launch. After a year and a half, we're just now getting ONE RWBY character while the other franchises have gotten a bunch. It's cool that Blitzkampf is here, but this feels like too little too late. The online is dead so there's practically nothing to do here.

I'm not a big RWBY fan (well after the whole fiasco and season 4&5 being ..... I'm not getting into it now), but that was AWESOME! Neo Politan is an awesome addon! Hopefully we see some more RWBY? Crow, Penny, any of the other groups....
The tank character made me laugh.... Like what?

@ALinkttPresent
I know right? RWBY is really not good

@ALinkttPresent I bought the game because of RWBY so any more characters is great for me. Ren and Nora would be much appreciated Arc.

@ALinkttPresent Sure they do. The Senran Kagura franchise isn't inappropriate, it's for a mature audience.

You've most definitely never played the games or experienced the brilliant characters and writing, going from your opinion.

Maybe talk about things you know literally ANYTHING about, instead of out of whatever you sit on?

@chickje this. I really wish they added an arcade mode given they are still supporting the game thus far down the line.

I thought the update in May was bringing an arcade mode, i tried it last night and no it didn't.

Homura was in Nitroplus Blasterz so it's not unusual for Senran Kagura characters to appear in fighting games.

Awesome. Love the game despite not knowing half (or more) of the franchises.

Neo Politan is cool. I'm all for Crow as well.

@JoeDiddley And the stupidest thing is, they have this whole area with arcade cabinets, that does absolutely nothing. So why build that in the first place if you have no intention of adding an arcade mode. Makes no sense to me.

@chickje Yeah and this just leaves very little for people who aren't trying to get together with people and play this game. The online isn't that active and the existing single player content isn't that good. They know the fans have been begging for an arcade mode, all the other versions of Blazblue have good single player experiences, it is just ridiculous how they can't seem to get something like an arcade mode together for this game. Those cabinets are just the worst, what a tease.

@Ttimer5 @Pogocoop Cheese, lighten up. Volume 4 of "RWBY" may have been kind of bland (but by no means awful), but Volumes 5 & 6 were fantastic. I'm just worried about how they're going to replace Qrow's voice actor in the upcoming Volume 7...

Akatsuki Blitzkampf. Ah, finally a name to go with that quirky anime game with the tank that was next to DoDonPachi DaiOuJou at Defend the North. Literally, everyone I asked basically said 'just look up Blitztank', LOL.

I guess this is as close as we're getting to a SK action game on the Switch...

Honestly the tank is the reason I now want this game.

Does this game play like a street fighter game? Similar to MvC2?

Huh. This game sure is getting a lot of support. A character from SK is a pleasant surprise, though I would have expected Asuka to show up first. I might just jump on that DLC.

An arcade mode would be nice, but I really wish they would add a 1v1 mode too.

Love the fact Neo be joining the game ,but should they just not make an fighting game around rwby. Or an rpg one as I think both would fit the series

It'll be interesting to play as Neo since she's mute and doesn't speak so no "ow" or "ugh" or even attack announcements.

They already had WAY TOO MANY DLC. This? This is outrageous

Senran Kagura? No. Immediate no. This is disgusting filth. Why are so many people supporting senran kagura?

More Persona?

@ALinkttPresent One's too PC, The others too Ecchi. Guess which ones going to get a ton of haters?

@PBandSmelly Don't like don't buy. Why is it such a big deal that an ecchi anime game is lewd? It's not like anyone is pointing a gun at you and forcing you to buy only Yumi.

@PBandSmelly because Senran Kagura is awesome. The mainline games have enough tight gameplay and sex appeal to be entertaining for mature audiences who know how to separate fantasy from reality. I love the idea of SK characters being expanded this way, and hope it continues.

100% yes to Neopolitan, such a cool character

@PBandSmelly a baseless, blanket judgment about people who like something that you don't. Very childish. But that is the go-to comment of the overly-judgmental limited thinker...immediately jumping to the disgusting or the degenerate accusation because it's impossible for you to open your mind and imagine that people might have different preferences from yours.

That being said, even if some folks do use games like Senran Kagura for that purpose (and with the easy access to actual pornography on the internet, I can't imagine who would) who does that harm? Certainly not you.

@PBandSmelly >This game
Gee, I didn't think Blazblue was for basement dwelling Neanderthals who live off their parents. Guess that's why you bought it too, huh wise guy?

And again, DON'T LIKE DON'T BUY is all you can do. Just because it makes you feel impure in your little Christian household doesn't mean they shouldn't add her to the roster. For a guy who is a fan of Jojo's bizzare adventure, I'd think you'd at least see one nude boob scene in anime at least once.

And above all else, it's just yumi, not the whole nude, boob-fondling idea you keep suggesting SK is all about. One character does not ruin a whole game. Why is it that it's always guys who watch DBZ and My hero academia are such hypocrites when it comes to SK or Kill la kill?

Stop worrying about who gets added into a videogame, who plays what, and get laid. Thank you.

@PBandSmelly Who are you to judge and attack people like that? What makes you any better than someone who likes this sort of thing? So what if they enjoy anime girls and never go out and talk? How does this, in any way, affect you or society? Are you lonely because they don't talk to you instead?

What makes you and your opinion on how to live your life better than anyone else's?

So long as people aren't harming each other they should be allowed to do whatever they want.

@PBandSmelly, @ALinkttPresent, it's a shame to be so close-minded... Senran Kagura helped get me into both video games and anime - I'll always have a special place in my heart for the franchise. Btw, PB, if you only seen some pics of my ex gfs (the 3D type). And no, I'm not livin' in my folks basement, rather a sweet townhouse I enjoy thanks to a govt stipend from all the time spent at war, from dealing with real life bs when my girl Yumi just offers pure escapism. And anyway, this'll prob be the only reason I'm even looking into BlazBlue...sure had been the only reason I had even commented after getting fired up. Hey haters - think a bit before posting your anti-SK fodder. Every action has a reaction, and if you think you're preaching to the choir you may just remember they say bad publicity is better than none... you may actually just be turning others on, no pun intended. Anyway, I tire of our current PC landscape, with everybody walking on eggshells lest they offend. It's only natural this heterosexual male likes his sexy fighting ninjas, 'nuff said.

@Dualmask This. Also BBCBT such a great great game.

i want to like this game, but the lack of good fighting mechnics & extra lengthy life bars (handicaps to make the rounds last longer) from previous blazblue titles, kills crosstag for me and makes it virtually unenjoyable for me. All these new fighting games getting SUPER EASY fighting mechanics/controls only is pissing me off. like have a more complicated/standard option for people who like a little complexity please.

@ALinkttPresent Have you seen The Tank? in this game the word "belong" doesn't apply. Besides, it's DLC, your purity is safe from the "filth" that is Senran Kagura.

@PBandSmelly Chill dude, DLC IS OPTIONAL! Also Senran Kagura is awesome, that's why there's support, deal with it.

@Travisemo007 That sounds more like your problem than the games'. simple mechanics are not a synonym for a lack of depth and complexity, conversely, complexity does not equal quality.

@RWBYxSK the game has been dumbed down, i disagree. they need to fix it and add the option for complexer controls and longer health bars.

I'm very glad Yumi got added, as a former devote of SK this is great. I despise RWBY and refuse to be a part of it, but I'm still glad that the fans of the series get to have characters added to this very popular game and have their series represented further. It's REALLY not that hard to act like a mature adult instead of a petulant child.
