Blazblue Central Fiction

It is the fourth game in the BlazBlue series, and is set after the events of BlazBlue: Chrono Phantasma. The Overdrive activation's duration is now shown under the Burst Gauge in the form of a countdown timer ; The character portrait near the health bar shakes when taking damage; and each character's emblem appears on their side when the phrase "The Wheel of Fate is Turning" shows at the start of the first Rebel. The new gameplay mechanics are: Exceed Accel, a special type of Distortion Drive, which is executed a same input as Overdrive activation by holding it during Overdrive activation, or pressing it, begins with the character performing a specific attack in their move-set, and once it connects the rest of the background shatters away into the Overdrive background effect when the attack is performed. A character that fights offensively goes into an Active Flow, which boosts damage and recovery of the Burst Gauge. This version has every character including the Playstation console added characters and the DLC character, Jubei. In Japan, BlazBlue: Central Fiction sold 26,506 copies on PS4 and 9,674 copies on PS3. Chris Carter of Destructoid gave the title an 8.5/10 while complimenting the impressive amount of effort with few problems for a niche game.
