‘Gravity Rush Remastered’ and ‘Gravity Rush 2’ Confirmed For PS4!
Rumors have been swirling for months about a possible PS4 remaster of Gravity Rush, the Vita exclusive action title that gave players the power to control gravity to manipulate its heroine and her surroundings. In addition, a sequel was announced at Tokyo Game Show 2014, but no further details were discussed, including which platform it would end up on. Both questions were addressed in one fell swoop at Tokyo Game Show 2015, where both Gravity Rush Remastered and Gravity Rush 2 were revealed as PS4 exclusives!
The remastered version of the first game is set for an early 2016 release, with its sequel arriving later in the year. With Gravity Rush being one of my absolute favorite titles in years, I’m thrilled that the original will get the due it deserves by being exposed to a much bigger audience. At the same time, I’m a little surprised that the second game isn’t coming to Vita as well, (although I probably shouldn’t be.) From the trailer, it doesn’t seem like it’s too technologically advanced to be on Sony’s handheld, (although the city coming alive at the end looks amazing,) so it’s pointing more to the idea that Sony just doesn’t see any value in releasing the game on their portable console. If this isn’t proof that the company sees the Vita as dead, then I don’t know what is.
Regardless, between the team ups with her former rival, Raven, new, bigger enemies and the return of Kat and Dusty, there’s plenty of reason to be excited. And if you don’t know what I’m talking about, you’ll get the chance with the remaster! What are your thoughts on Gravity Rush becoming a PS4 exclusive, (and the Vita’s death along with it?)
