What I like to know is what the heck happened to the main game. Was going to be localized for Xbox 360 but had its issues. Then got a port for PS3 and Xbox 360 which got ignored. Since then we have only been getting the spin-off game for all systems.

I can answer that one quite clearly. But to put it shortly, it got canceled, unsure of why, but around the same time it got canceled, 7sixty/Southpeak Games went out of business the same year (even their websites are dead as clear indication).

Either way, the game's already finished and put in English, but not to the general public. You can still see the game's trailers on 7sixty's YT page even if they're no longer around.

Also, the only time Phantom Breaker in English was displayed at Anime Matsuri in TX of 2012.

Screwattack and the 7sixty crew trying out the English version of Phantom Breaker, unboxing of the US LE even.

While Extra has been out for a while, and yes, region free for the X360, and obvious with PS3. Though that either has even yet to be in English too.

But yeah, all we got was the spin-off game stateside, and the official art book as the only official PB merchandise to be translated into English.
