Enter the Gungeon for PS Vita?

Will they ever port it over?

[srsface]

Seeing as the PS Vita is a wasteland of missed opportunity on Sony's part and it's officially stopped being manufactured, I would guess no.

But, wouldn't it be a great platform for the game seeing that the game is third party and the vita is practically made for it

[PlayerNameT]

No it wouldn't sadly the Vita is not a great platform for anything anymore.

The Vita simply has no market, there is no money to be made with a port to that system and thus developers have basically no incentive to ever even attempt to do a port of their game, investing resources without much of a pay off.

But what about games like Crypt of the Necrodancer, Risk of Rain, Rouge Legacy, Hotline Miami, Binding of Isaac, and Nuclear Throne?

Mistercowman don't listen to them - they misinformed you - Sony is not only still manufacturing and supporting but they've just annouced 2 new colour schemes for Vita Slim on TGS 2016 just forget about new and fresh triple A titles like Killzone or Uncharted but ENTER THE GUNGEON is a INDIE pixelart title like many many more. Market for PSP and VITA is PLAYSTATION STORE and It's not going to stop running - market is dynamic, even in Poland we can buy pre-paid cards everywhere. I wish for ETG on VITA too - please gamers make it happen.

Oh yeah, new color schemes because we all know thats whats going to keep a platform alive!

Who cares about those lousy triple A title everyone is always talking about? Much rather have a handheld that might or might not become some support from indie developers despite of the fact that even it's manufacturer has stopped producing big games for it...

The game would work well, but i doubt it would be worth it.

I think porting this game to Vita would require a major rewrite. I know the game looks 2D and uses pixel art, but between the depth (the whole game is actually 3D), extra shaders/lighting/effects, rather large floor size, and complicated bullet physics/interactions, this game requires a lot more to run than most expect. Getting it to work well on the PS4 was a big undertaking, and we still drop frames in certain fights; I think getting it on Vita would require substantial work, so it's just not in our future plans right now.
