As SOME of you may know the game Blazblue: Continuum Shift received two DLC characters in the past, Makoto Nanaya and Valkenhayn R. Hellsing however Xbox fans got Valkenhayn about 2 months later then PS3 did due to technicalities Arc System Works had with the file for Valkenhayn however after the long wait a new issue arised ... his achievements were glitched and unobtainable. Players were wondering when the **** they were going to get patched. Its been months since then and we finally got word about the achievement issue right next to an even bigger concern Blazblue players were wondering about, the patch for BBCSII.

Now one concern i have is how the Challenge mode progression carries over and how will that affect the achievement for completing 100 challenges. Only time will tell right now.
Right next to this balance patch is an optional DLC character that many players have been waiting for Platinum the Trinity who will come at the price of 560 MSP.
The patch is scheduled to be released in Japan on May 12th and according to Aksysgames US players should expect the patch sometime in the same month.
