Blazblue: Chrono Phantasma
This is the third full game in the BlazBlue Series and it introduced some system changes compared to the Continuum Shift games:
- Gold Burst replaced with Overdrive. Overdrive puts characters in a temporarily powered up state, similar to Vampire Savior's Darkforce mechanic. Some characters like Ragna and Bang have had their supers (Blood Kain and Fu-Rin-Ka-Zan) replaced as their Overdrive.
- Guard Primers removed, replaced with Crush Trigger. Pressing 5A+B to perform an attack that can break your opponent's guard (unless they're using Barrier). This costs 25% Heat.
- Hitstop has been lessened and combos are intended to be shorter/faster.
- All characters have new moves, and many have had their existing moves changed.
New Characters
Three new characters have been announced so far:
- Amane: A man dressed in a pink kimono and scarf seeking to add Carl to his traveling troupe. His drive attacks turn his scarf into a drill, into which he can use to attack his opponent from long range. Heavily implied in the command list that there is a level system with it.
- Bullet: A mercenary with golden gauntlets who has a past with Sector Seven. Bullet's drive attacks allow her to quickly teleport to the opponent and strike them, provided that she is close enough to the opponent. She plays like a rushdown-grappler hybrid.
- Azrael: A man who works with Sector Seven. Azrael's drive attacks reveal weak points on the opponent when he hits the opponent. Hitting a weak point gives his attacks special properties, like wallbounce, unblockable, etc. The weakpoint disappears after hitting it, but can be reapplied in the same combo.
- Noel's costume has been changed. She no longer wears the NOL uniform and hat like in the previous games.
- Nu and Mu have both been added for the game. Rumors state that Nu will be able to switch between two modes in the middle of a fight: in armor mode like we've seen in previous games and in unarmored mode where she wears the robe and cape that she typically wears in pre-fight scenes.
