 Arc System Works has set a solid release date for the new version of BlazBlue.  BlazBlue: Continuum Shift is set for release on July 1, 2010 in Japan.  As a huge fighting fan myself, I hope and pray that the North American release is not too far behind that date.  Hopefully we can get our hands on the updated game later this year.  Arc is also releasing a limited edition of the game alongside the standard retail release.  The special edition will include a visual style / art book and a figure of Noel Nendroid.  Much like the original, the new version of the game is absolutely GORGEOUS... perhaps the best 2D fighter period.  Arc has also released a ton of new screenshots for the game, showing us just how beautiful it is (thank you Andriasang):
