MCV/DEVELOP News, events, research and jobs from the games industry
A Sony exec has responded to online criticism regarding the Vita no-show in Sony’s Gamescom 2014 press conference.
The handheld (as well as the PS3) was MIA from the briefing, provoking strong criticism from the Vita’ loyal and vocal fanbase online.
Subsequently PlayStation content strategist Shahid Kamal Ahmad took to Twitter to name a string of titles on the way.
Admittedly the list is light on first party triple-A IP, but it’s certainly a diverse list containing both big-hitters and indie curiosities that should offer something for all system owners.
Remember, it won’t be long before you see Minecraft on Vita.
