We may already have this year’s surprise localization. Phantom Breaker, 5pb’s (mostly) gals fighting game for Xbox 360, will be released in North America. The game centers around a Tokyo fighting tournament where the winner will get their wish granted.

Oh, and Phantom Breaker has guests from Steins;Gate and Chaos;Head Noah. Kurisu Makise and Rimi Sakihata are playable characters.

 

5pb released Phantom Breaker for Xbox 360 in June 2011 and a company (that also with a number for the first “letter” in their name) is bringing the game overseas. Introducing 7Sixty, an Austin based publisher that released Stronghold 3 and have Phantom Breaker slated for release in North America later this year.

 

The game is also getting a Limited Edition as seen here:

Which means that would be the actual date, even though 7sixty really never wrote or set an official release date anyway. But we'll see.

I'm not sure if that is the actual date. I've seen February 28, March 6, and some date in June as well for possible release dates. 7sixty just says "Early 2012" so we can safely assume that it will be in the spring some time and hopefully they will announce an official date soon! :)

If the release of Early 2012 would make any sense, it would be around Jan, or Feb., not Mar. or later months, also, if any of those dates will be prior 7sixty would have announced it. So it could be any of those dates if and when necessary.

 

Other than that, from what I've read here, it seems PB's NA port won't be cross compatible with the JP port (Kinda like DeathSmiles and Otomedius X for online matchmaking), so that probably means a separate 1000:gsicon: in English.

That would be fine by me.

 

I also assume NA is automatically 1.02 otherwise I don't see the point of 5pb making a patch close the the release of the NA version.

3月6日に北米で発売予定の海外版『ファントムブレイカー』

 

In the official site of JP, it is written like this.

 

Yeah, even though its from 5PB themselves, I wouldn't quote on that, since it just might be the update for the game or something like that anyway, also, the English achievement list just did come out the same day, but its just a mere coincidence really, but not a proper date.

 

More awesome regarding this upcoming fighter! Dated for march 20 and it appears that it's getting an update from it's original jpn release. Mark your calanders http://www.webcam-steamate.com/cookies/38/b/happy.gif

 

But don't quote yourself on that, you never know if and when it gets released with an actual solid date.

We'll we know technically the game is already complete in English, but like I mentioned, before they have to ship it, they have to make sure its bug free, or something like that, to make it balanced, but I know you might say its an excuse to wait, technically, to me, I'm in no rush to get it, its kind of the same way like what happened to Otomedius Excellent back then.

Pretty much, I even saw streams of the Eng. Ver. with 1.02 already on disc, so we'll see until then.

 

Update: It seems certain sites have them listed for 4/10, while Gamestop and even the xbox.com page for this game has it for 4/24, uggh, its gonna be like Otomedius Excellent again with the delays and such...
