Battle Fantasia coming to North American PSN this fall

battle-fantasia_01b

Sure, oddly titled fighter Battle Fantasia has been pulverizing European PS3 owners since, like, the dawn of time, but now — finally — North American PS3 players can find out what a Battle Fantasia is too.

The game, which saw European retail release more than a year ago, is now slated to hit PSN this fall, according to Kotaku. Why? Project Lead Frank “Bo” deWindt II explained:

“The fans have been asking for it and we’re here to deliver. Thanks to the revival of the fighting genre this year there hasn’t been a better time to release such a fun and exciting fighter like Battle Fantasia on the PlayStation Network.”

Whats with the Xbox 360 tag I thought it was exclusive you even talk about the 360 in the post. This happens alot with PS3 exclusive stuff you put the 360 in there eve Gameinformer put Killzone 2 saying it was on the 360 on some other PS3 exclusives saying its only on 360!

Hate to break this to you guys, but it’s not that good. Played the JP version this time last year… just an “okay” title. Anything more than $15 should come with a little caution label. It’s beautiful, but kinda broken.

360/PS3 versions came out in EU this year, just before SF4… which was a stupid time to release a fighting game really.

And according to Eurogamer, both versions are under 1.5GB in their retail disc format. The data would even fit on a UMD! That’s smaller than some demos, making it perfect for digital distribution.
