Guilty Gear developers Arc System Works dropped BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger in Japanese arcade last November. Today, a console port has been announced, with the 2D fighting game coming to PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.

The latest issue of Famitsu Weekly breaks the news that BlazBlue will make the jump to console this Summer. So far, that's only for the Japanese audience. Failing a North American or European localization—which we'd doubt—an import may be in order.

1UP's recount of the Famitsu story notes that the home version of BlazBlue will add a substantial single-player story mode, one touted to take 30 hours to complete.

The game will also get a boost from its arcade version with full online multiplayer support, downloadable content and an animated sequence from anime studio GONZO.
