PS Vita Launch Titles Announced
Whenever a new console launches, one of the most important things to look at is the lineup of games that will be released along side it. Nintendo learned this the hard way when the 3DS came out, as they didn’t have many hot titles. As a result, the sales figures weren’t as high as expected, and the price was dropped relatively quickly. So how will Sony fair with the Vita early next year?
The company has announced 25 titles that will be launching on February 22nd, and another ten that will hit stores shortly after the handheld. Here is a full list of the announced launch-day titles:
- Army Corps of Hell (Square Enix, Inc.)
- Asphalt Injection (Ubisoft)
