Arc System Works will bring its 2015 fighter BlazBlue: Central Fiction natively to the PS5 in the future, although a release date has not been announced.

The port will feature a variety of highly requested community updates, including: rollback crossplay netcode with the PC release, four new text languages, and various improved training modes.

Presumably it’ll also benefit from the PS5’s added horsepower, so expect some minor presentation improvements.

The Japanese studio confirmed recently that it’ll update the decade-old brawler with a new character on the PS4, Trinity Glassfille.

While its wording is a little ambiguous, it sounds like the PS5 version’s launch date will not necessarily align with Trinity’s addition. No date for the new character has been confirmed either.

This a surprise and welcome announcement, which should ensure BlazBlue: Central Fiction sticks around for many years to come.

Wording on Arc System Works’ American social media post implies this will be a free upgrade for existing PS4 owners, but Arc System Works says it’ll announce more information in due course.
