505 Games, a global publisher of video games, today announced that the block-building smash hit Terraria is headed to the PlayStation Vita system (PS Vita). In development by Engine Software, Terraria for PS Vita will be available in summer 2013.
Originally released in 2011 for the PC by creator/developer Andrew Spinks’ Re-logic studio, Terraria has received universal, critical acclaim and over 2 million “Terrarians” have struck out on their own adventures and fallen for it’s mix of side-scrolling, action-adventure gaming and emphasis on crafting and exploration.
Tim Woodley, Head of Global Brand at 505 Games said, “We’re all huge fans of Terraria and have been overwhelmed by the support we’ve received from the existing community since we began working with the property.
And it’s been amazing to see how many of those fans have been asking for a portable version of Terraria so they can take their adventures with them on the go.
The biggest challenge for us is how to give players the control they need to fully enjoy the experience and we’re really excited to explore the potential of the multiple input options that the PlayStation Vita affords us.”
