Fuck yes!!

Aalmost preordered the Singapore version this week; glad I held off. Hope the music isn't stripped out of this release.

How interesting~!

Concerned about music licenses, too, but this is just so good to see.

If Bamco wants to fork over the extra money, the music licenses should be fine. Tho for whatever reason there's a premium audio version now for Japan, which I found odd because the previous PS3 and PS2 releases had the original songs by default.

The only tricky songs are the three Neil Sedaka Zeta songs, unless they figured that out too. But this game is from the ground up so who knows if they even bother with those three songs.
 
Cool, though looking at the roster I'm disappointed by no G Gundam reps(Even though I can totally understand why implementing either Shining or God Gundam into the game would be difficult because of the pretty much exclusive emphasis on ultra close range combat)

Is japanese ps plus required?

Gonna have so much fun with this. Boost dive looks like a good mechanic to add.

Edit; wait localized? Fuckkkk yeessssss

Gematsu has a list up for the premium stuff

Sweet but I am still concerned about the music licences though. I still might get the English Asian version if the music licences are still intact in that version.

Not having the music will kill my interest. Take the money that would be used for English dub and put it towards the music licenses instead. Its a significant part of the experience.

Well, I was already gonna import it like Extreme Versus and Full Boost. Now I can just wait a little bit!... Maybe. Hah.

I had my doubts this would happen (thought "worldwide" meant "SEA") but I'm so happy it did.

Don't know what to do now, though - if there are substantial version differences, or shitty placeholder music that isn't even what's in the regular (non-G Sound) version, I might have to double dip.

Also that July to fall wait is gonna be tough.

Anyone still importing?
