Senran Kagura Burst arrives in North America this fall

Publisher Xseed has announced that it will be publishing the side-scrolling female ninja-themed action game Senran Kagura Burst on the 3DS (via Siliconera).

The North American version will contain both localized versions of Senran Kagura: Shojo-tachi no Shinei and Senran Kagura Burst: Guren no Shojo-tachi as one download via the 3DS eShop online store. The games, which features a gratuitous presentation style for its all-female ninja cast, will be out in North America this fall.

Players battle rival ninjas and bosses in side-scrolling beat-em-up form, using one of the five primary students from two of the game's underground ninja academy. The Japanese voice-overs will remain intact for the North American release, with English subtitles translating the dialogue.

A PlayStation Vita spin-off called Senran Kagura: Shinovi Versus was out earlier this year, with no plans for a North American localization at this point in time.
