Bleach: Heat the Soul 5 screens show off tag battles
It looks like the tag action will be the core of the gameplay as choosing the right type of tag team will determine special moves and the like. There are three different styles of tag teams: offensive, defensive, and technical. So far only 30 characters have been revealed out of a planned 42. A bit of a step down from Bleach 4's 51-strong roster, but who knows if any more hidden characters will pop up.
Currently, Bleach: Heat the Soul 5 is set for release in Japan on May 15th. Bleach 5 looks to be the biggest Heat the Soul title so far. Could it be the first one to cross over the Pacific and into North America?

PSP is region free. Just import it.
Also HtS4's character list had a lot of duplicates in the "EX" versions and such. Hopefully they cut down on this.

I got my copy of Heat the Soul 4 in Korea, so the Japanese one -might- be different, but I highly doubt it.
The main menus are in English. Everything else, including voice/story text/stuff that tells you the conditions of the battle - are in Japanese.

Most of HtS4's characters were, as previously stated, EX versions and also Bankai's and Shikai's and the like. Now that they finally decided to add in a transformation mechanic, all those duplicates aren't necessary. So we should still see new characters without old ones being removed.

Well english dubs for anime suck, so I don't care bout them. Besides, that's too much to ask for, and original japanese voicework is so much better. But on the other side, an english text option for subs and menus doesn't sound like too much of a chore. Hope the japanese dev considers them, since there's no plans for localization for any of this titles. That'd make the import soooooo worth the extra money.
