We get a few emails once in a while asking us if Bleach: Heat the Soul is coming out to American or Europe. Unfortunately folks, it doesn't look to be happening yet. While Japan enjoys the fourth Heat the Soul game, we're left empty-handed. It took a couple of years for the manga to cross over, and then a few more for the anime series to make it big. Now that the franchise is finally carrying some serious clout, we're hopeful that the games will make their inevitable way to the States. Until then, let's just watch this footage of Heat the Soul 4. Impatient gamers, of course, will be tempted to simply import the title.

Can't get enough Bleach? Heat the Soul 4 revealed
I'm a fan of the anime series Bleach, but even I find it ridiculous how often these games are coming out on the PSP. Within two years, the Heat the Soul franchise is getting its fourth game. As usual, expect a larger roster of characters from the anime's continuing storyline. With the franchise's good looks and awesome presentation, Bleach fans will certainly want to get their hands on the game. But really, isn't this too much?
Check out the official Japanese website to see videos of this fighter in action.

Bleach's 33 characters of kicking butt
Bleach: Heat the Soul 3 came out in Japan a few weeks ago, and the import reviews are slowly trickling in. PSP411's KageNaruto had nearly nothing but praise for the fighter, praising the game's great cel-shaded graphics and excellent voice acting, ripped straight from the anime. It goes into almost nosebleed-inducing detail about the gameplay (2960 words!). Of particular note are the visually intense specials that all 33 characters have (featured above). I'm a pretty serious Bleach fan, and after watching that video, and reading this review, I feel like I have no choice but to import this game immediately. Hopefully, Sony will bring the games out here one day, especially once the show starts airing on Cartoon Network this September.
