Caladrius Blaze being ported to PS4 by H2 Interactive

[Oniros]

Confirmed only for South Korea so far. Wonder if UFO Interactive will pick this up considering that they passed on Blaze for the PS3. Trailer here.

Was Caladrius successful in Korea or something? Weird that there wouldn't also be a Japanese release.

Wish Moss would put it on All.Net, I really hate AC...

But I thought Caladrius was available on All.net already.

[Mero]

He's talking about Caladrius AC and the modes therein, Blaze has Evolution mode which isn't in AC (as well as a port of AC).

[NeoStrayCat]

Kinda odd that this is releasing for PS4, and that the English 360 release is almost near, hmm...

[DoomsDave]

Would be shocked if it didn't come to PC now.

The trailer claims it has the longest story ever in a shmup. Wonder if it could surpass Radiant Silvergun in terms of storyline, then?

[EmperorIng]

I thought Caladrius's story was just a softcore retelling of Steam Heart's.

[Chaos Phoenixma]

How long is Radiant Silvergun's Story compared to Sine Mora's? I thought most of a run of RSG was more due to all the stage parts, which would normally be skipped regardless. Not sure about how long Sine Mora's was though because I don't have it(though I remember it being mentioned to be long before it came out), and it's been so long since I've played RSG.

[Shepardus]

I don't know how long Sine Mora is, but all the story segments of Radiant Silvergun, including the opening and ending cutscenes, total to around 20 minutes. The milking adds more time than the story.

[Immryr]

i think he meant how long the story spans. i.e radiant silvergun goes from 100,000 BC to... whatever point in the future the rest happens in. (or maybe he didn't mean this..... I dunno)

Shmup stories ranking:

Rayforce > Parodius > RSG > Metal Black > Armed Police Batrider > Alltynex Trilogy > R-Type > Einhander > Final Fantasy 7 > Dimahoo > Every story ever told in every medium > Touhou

Now if you excuse me I'm going to go look up Caladrius on Tv Tropes and then masturbate.

[Chaos Phoenixma]

was referring to the length of all the cutscenes and story stuff, so yeah RSG is about 20 minutes of it.

[amdiggywhut]

I'll definitely buy this if it comes to PS4. Seems like it'd have to be physical, however.

[HydrogLox]

Looks to me that H2 Interactive Co., Ltd. only does digital download. So the physcal medium seems to be limited to existing PS3 copies.

Hahahh. You missed gradius V, put it before touhou. longest minute ever.

Shouldn't ChoRenSha68k be at the top?

[Doctor Butler]

Hahahh. You missed gradius V, put it before touhou. longest minute ever.

Yeah. Those uneventful camera-pans aren't very long, but god they feel like forever.

Well evidently there was no PS4 Caladrius Blaze release in December.

The H2 Interactive Caladrius Blaze site now mentions a non-specific "2016 Q1 (TBD)" for a "World-wide" PS4 release (Digital PSN no doubt) - nothing about a PC/Steam release so far (probably suitably delayed to maximize PSN sales).

Edit: SteamDb App - Last Known Name: "Caladrius Blaze"

[STGAlmond]

I've been excited for this to come to PC, but since it hasn't been officially announced for PC I try not to get hopes too high.

Perhaps the delay of PS4 version is to get PC and PS4 simultaneously. I doubt it though since it is only announced for PS4 currently.

Anyone heard anything besides the steamdb entry for caladrius to suggest it is on the way for PC?

[NeoStrayCat]

Well, yes, usually games leaked on Steam DB do end up being up for release eventually. And I expect Caladrius Blaze to be the same, goody that the PS4 release is planned for Worldwide (albeit) digital distribution. Will still wait on the Steam release however.

Well, at least unlike the modified 360 digital release overseas (US/EU), it seems they'll keep the ero art, unironically, lol. (Though yes, the "Arcade" mode has the modified Boss and Results screen arts.)

Time to wank at 60fps in 1080p!
