SEGA has announced that Dengeki Bunko Fighting Climax is being localized for the Americas and Europe set to release October 6th.

Dengeki Bunko: Fighting Climax is a 2D crossover fighting game featuring popular characters from Japanese novels published under the Dengeki Bunko label, and will be available this October in retail stores and digitally on PlayStation®Network. The game will be $39.99 for the PS3 version and $29.99 for the PS Vita version.

​

The Dengeki Bunko collection boasts a vast array of beloved characters who lend themselves flawlessly to this highly balanced, easy-to-learn, high-action 2D fighting game. In Dengeki Bunko: Fighting Climax players attack, guard, and take damage in order to build their Climax Meter, allowing them to execute moves which recreate highlight scenes from the original novels, even adding specially arranged animations for characters who do not fight in the original works. The game includes characters from numerous Dengeki Bunko works alongside several fan-favorite SEGA characters brought together in SEGA-themed environments.

Dengeki Bunko: Fighting Climax is slated for release on PlayStation®3 system, PlayStation®Vita system and via digital download on PlayStation®Network on October 6, 2015.

Pre-orders and a small number of retail copies at launch will also include a bonus soundtrack CD with music inspired by classic SEGA titles.

Oh? This seems pretty awesome. =O
The article kinda confused me a bit though, will the first batch include the OST and still be 29.99$? Also, will the ost bundle be released for europe as well (given that the trailer mentions america and europe at the end)?

Sorry, I meant to edit in Europe before publishing and totally screwed up. As for the soundtrack, the release just says pre-orders "and a limited quantity of launch edition retail games". Pretty non-specific if it will be the whole batch of first day releases or what. I don't imagine it will be that hard to get the CD though.

Well, as long as Europe get's the OST I'll be happy enough. x'D
If the game follows the usual price point being the same as the american (number wise), 30€ for the game with the OST included would be pretty sweet. =O

didn't sony just declare that the original vita model has gone "legacy"?

the vita 2000 model should still be supported

Depends on Sega and not Sony in this case. There are plenty Cross buy games getting released all the time.

No I think it's all vita models (at least outside of Japan) its legacy

They backtracked that statement and clarified that it was just about the 1000 model.
But it's too late for the people because "lol vita is d3ad". Then they released Resident Evil Revelations 2 on that thing and everybody shot up.

Oh well then either way RER2 had little to do since the legacy was announced for only the Sony First party games.

The legacy statement was targeted to hardware, not software.
Sony did state that they won't be focusing on blockbuster titles too much as they cost way too much money and the sale numbers are too risky but they did confirm that smaller projects, like helldivers, will keep to see the light of the day on Vita. Also since Spain is all over the Vita so we do get a few games like Looney Tunes Galactic Sports. It's nothing groundbreaking but hey it's something.

Resi Rev2, Helldivers, and Looney tunes are actually Sony published games.
