BlazBlue: Battle Cards looking to take that card crown

First gameplay footage released

The BlazBlue franchise continues to diversify its portfolio. Whether it be a mobile rhythm game or a visual novel, the series has grown from its fight-game roots.

With BlazBlue: Battle Cards, that trend continues — but only for the iPad. As similar titles like Hearthstone continue to succeed, this is clearly a genre ripe for the picking.

If you’re dying to try this out, we’ve been assured a demo for the game will arrive in the next few weeks. In the meantime, check out the first official gameplay footage for this card battler.
