Bleach heading to Nintendo Wii and DS

SEGA is set to bring Bleach: Shattered Blade to the Wii and Bleach: The Blade of Fate to the Nintendo DS. Both versions feature a cast of characters voiced by the actors from the BLEACH anime. Bleach: Shattered Blade for Wii and Bleach: The Blade of Fate DS will be released in early 2008.

The Bleach storyline follows fifteen-year-old Ichigo Kurosaki who has the power to see spirits from the afterlife, including warriors known as Soul Reapers. The Soul Reapers are tasked with defending humans from otherworldly beings called Hollows. One fateful day, Ichigo meets Rukia, a Soul Reaper who lends him her powers after she’s injured by a Hollow.

Bleach: Shattered Blade for the Wii enables players to wield the Wii Remote and Nunchuk as their weapons. Bleach: Shattered Blade offers an exclusive storyline created specifically for the Wii with 32 characters to choose from.

On the Nintendo DS, Bleach: The Blade of Fate players will face a variety of opponents as one of 28. Bleach: The Blade of Fate brings a twist to the traditional 2D fighting game with a new kind of battle system that enables players to move between upper and lower split-plane battle arenas to chase after or escape from opponents.
