Video: Bleach: Heat the Soul 4 trailer

Most of us in the US have probably not caught on to the whole Bleach craze in Japan, but everyone across the continents have heard about it at one point or another, which hints to just how popular the anime series is. In any case, Bleach: Heat the Soul 4  came to the Sony PlayStation Portable in Japan last May 24 and it’s a nice-looking fighting game with a lot of eye-candy special effects and fierce Eastern spirit-brawling.

The Bleach HTS game line-up has been around for quite some time now and some controversy was noted in Japan as some fans complained that the people at SCEJ were milking the franchise money cow more than it should. Still, the games continue to sell because of the immense popularity of the title and the nice quality of the PSP game tie-ins.

An exact release date for the US is still up in the air but there’s long been talk of doing a full-English version of the game similar to what was done with some Naruto titles, but everything’s still blurry at this point. We’ll keep you posted for more developments as they happen.
