Publisher Zen United and distributor PQube have today announced details of a Limited Edition of BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger for PS3. The Limited Edition, which is presented in a specially branded box, is now available for pre-order for a limited period at the same price as the standard version of the game.

As you can see from these amazing screenshots, BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger is a fantastic-looking 2D weapons-based fighting game, created by Arc Works Systems, the Japanese developer behind the Guilty Gears franchise. The characters and art have been specifically designed for high-definition next-gen consoles, with the design process of the characters, story images and fighting system moves taking more than 18 months to perfect. The huge amount of work that has gone into designing the game is reflected in the 100-page art book, which is part of the Limited Edition package. Also included in the bundle is a bonus DVD with two hours of detailed tutorial guides covering the fighting systems, special moves and individual character strategies. This is what Tom Ohno, Managing Director of Zen United had to say about the game:

“It is great to see our labour of love and passions summarised into a book and DVD for European users. Both the Tutorial DVD and Art book present what we believe as important elements to bring the game alive, and we hope people enjoy them.”

BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger will be released in the UK on March 19^th 2010 for an RRP of £49.99.
