Magical Beat is Out Now – Will Include BlazBlue & Guilty Gear Cameos
We love Arc System Works’ fighting games so much that even when they do something outside of their master genre we’re intrigued. That’s why Magical Beat, a seemingly innocuous and fun PS Vita download puzzle game, leapt out to us. It mixes puzzle elements with rhythm elements for a unique gaming experience as you try to match tiles on time. It’s out now for £6.49/$9.99!
Upcoming downloadable content will include pixelated characters from some of Arc System Works’ most popular franchises: Guilty Gear, BlazBlue, and XBlaze.
Arc System Works, developer of world-class fighting games such as the Guilty Gear and BlazBlue series, is excited to announce that rhythm/puzzle game Magical Beat is available for purchase today in select countries world-wide as a digital download for PlayStation®Vita.
Magical Beat remixes the puzzle genre by adding in a beat. Drop colored blocks in a match-3 style to the background music’s rhythm with perfect timing to send blocks to your opponent’s screen. Charming 8-bit characters and menus guide you through stages with different BPMs for unique challenges and combo possibilities. Magical Beat features an original Vocaloid soundtrack created by Nico Nico celebrity and prolific sound creator Kikuo.
Upcoming downloadable content features cameos and tunes from Arc System Works’ flagship titles: XBlaze Code: Embryo, BlazBlue, and Guilty Gear. Pixelated versions of BlazBlue fighters like Ragna, Noel, and Taokaka and XBlaze Code: Embryo characters such as Es and Touya make special appearances in Magical Beat. The DLC packs will release once a week starting February 4th.
