'Arcana Heart 3' (PS3) Gets Euro Date, Limited Edition Details

by Rainier on May 10, 2011 @ 3:55 a.m. PDT

Arcana Heart 3 combines fast-paced aerial action with a unique cast for an extraordinary fighting experience never before seen in North America!

Arcana Heart 3 is an all-girl fighting game boasting gorgeous anime character art and a unique fighting system for an experience like no other. 23 girls and 23 ‘Arcana’ (special elemental powers) can be paired together for over 500 different character combinations.

Chaos and disorder are threatening to rip apart the very fabric of Japanese society as planar rifts appear throughout the country. It is suspected that the Drexler Institute, the instigator of the Great War many years ago and creator of the Divine Celestial Weapon, is somehow involved.

In the midst of this confusion, a mysterious rumor arises, claiming the existence of wish-granting “Celestial Stones” within the chaotic planar rifts. As a result of these rumors, a number of individuals have converged on Japan in the hopes of obtaining one of these fabled stones – either to seal them away or to see for themselves if rumor is true. Each person has their own reasons for seeking these rare and valuable stones, and they won’t let anyone stand in their way, be they foe...or friend.

Due to popular demand, Zen and PQube will also be offering a Limited Edition package for Europe.

The Arcana Heart 3 Limited Edition will include;

  • The original, 144 page Japanese Arcana Heart 3 artbook containing production sketches and concept art.
  • Arcana Heart 3 Official Soundtrack exclusive to this Limited Edition set.
