‘Killer Is Dead’ PlayStation Vita port still “undecided”

Killer-Is-Dead

Suda51′s upcoming series mash-up, Killer is Dead, is making its way to major consoles this summer, but its current status on the struggling PlayStation Vita is still up in the air.

Grasshopper Manufacture’s lead man Goichi Suda had plenty to say during this year’s Taipei Game Show, but his comments surrounding both PlayStation Move integration in Killer is Dead and a Vita version were some of the most interesting. The team is “undecided for now,” which is much better than a straight “no.” Since we’re just a few short months out from this action title, a portable version would probably be released a bit after launch.

Fans of both killer7 and No More Heroes, which are games Killer is Dead takes deep inspiration from, should keep their eyes on this news as it develops. The final product will be published by XSEED in North America and Deep Silver Games in Europe and, for now, will launch on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.

    Killer is Dead for Vita? I would buy 2 copies: one to use and second one to just lie there and look pretty :D

      YES. Killer is Dead on the greatest handheld game system in the world? Gawd, that’s pretty much the only way I’d get the game- there’s so much less competition on the Vita, and something like that would be so special on that system. I’d buy a copy for myself and multiple for friends, if it didn’t launch on the Vita I’d just wait for it to hit the bargain bin though. I love Suda 51′s games and all, buuut like I said there are just too many games for me to choose from on PS3 and having it on the go would be so much more special. I’d prefer Killer is Dead’s colorful, lovely art style on my Vita’s OLED screen to seeing it on my still-totally-awesome projector, no doubt.

    I’m on board for a vita version too. Moving overseas will make my portable gaming systems my PRIMARY gaming systems :-)
