Another “this wasn’t on anybody’s 2024 bingo cards” moments, it’s been announced that the crossover fighter that was released only in Japan on PSP in 2010 is finally getting localized on modern platforms!

No Xbox? Goddamn hobos
I thought Xbox was unpopular in Japan?
There have been more than a few instances of games that never saw Xbox releases in Japan but got them in the US. These are lesser-status franchises in the west though, so I shouldn’t have ever expected it. I just see all the platforms announced and get sad when there’s no letter X up there.
I have PC, PS4, and Switch so it’s not like I’m missing out. I just prefer to get games for the newest console I own, especially if they end up doing a physical one, and also even though I have had my PS4 for way less time than my Xbox One I have far more games for it than bOne/Series X combined and would rather even out the colleciton.
I happy that this game will be released on GOG. I am a fan of Kiseki series, and also GOG rarely gets any fighting games.
