MercurySteam Has No Plans To Develop For The PS Vita

With MercurySteam’s Castlevania trilogy spreading across three platforms ( Lords of Shadow 1/2 for the PS3, 360 and Mirror of Fate for the 3DS ) is there any chance that the Spain based studio will expand the reboot to other systems as well? Producer Dave Cox doesn’t think so.

Speaking to Edge Magine, Cox noted that due to resources the small studio is currently in no position to fucus on other platforms, including the PS Vita.

“It’s tempting: obviously Konami Japan are saying, ‘Are you looking at Vita?’ We have to say, ‘No, we’re going to focus on this.”

Cox also stated ( with a bit of laughter ) that if MecurySteam had the extra man powered then the studio probably would develop for paltforms such as the Vita, WiiU or PS4.

In the Meantime, current console owners can look forward to a darker version of Castlevania when Lords of Shadow 2 arrives sometime next year.
