Rainbow Moon releasing this December on PS Vita

[T-hug]

PS3 SRPG Rainbow Moon is coming to PlayStation Vita this December. The game releases December 3rd in the US and December 4th for Europe.

​

After we released Rainbow Moon on PS3 last year one of the most common questions we received was “are you going to make a PS Vita version?” Obviously we weren’t the only ones that believed Rainbow Moon would make a great companion for hand-held consoles and with demand being so high we set about working on a PS Vita port almost immediately.

Something that was really important to us from the beginning was using our own engine to ensure a solid 60 FPS and robust game with little to no loading times. After months of hard work we are happy to announce that Rainbow Moon Vita is finishing its final submission phase and will be available in the PlayStation Store from 4th December!

Considering the impending console launches and the glut of titles coming out this winter, how well can a year old port of a Japanese SRPG fare? I'm afraid that Rainbow Moon will be eclipsed.

I'm actually quite interested. If the game works as well as the trailer, it could be a good addition to my game collection so far!

So, does this mean if you've already bought it on the PS3, you'll be able to download it on your vita as well? Or are you going to have to re-buy it?

Only 2 to 3 days of entertainment? On a game that looks like you should be able to get maybe a month's entertainment from it, maybe more if you're into JRPG's? (which I am) This looks amazing; maybe I'll try going to Best Buy after they're closed and just steal a Vita around the time this comes out.

The devs said if you own it on PS3 you will get the Vita version for 50% less.
I'm interested, I think they chose a good release date as the Vita line up is pretty bleak after Tearaway, Ys and The Amazing Spider-Man.
Supposedly there is a trophy for 100hrs play time and you can't just leave the game on as it pauses after a minute of inactivity.
If you like Disgaea you should like this! The sequel Rainbow Skies is in development and should release next year on PS3 and Vita simultaneously.

So does it play like FF tactics advanced or Fire fire emblem awakening?
