Siliconera: Gust’s upcoming RPG, Chronos Materia, for the PlayStation Vita will be about the adventures of girls who have been thrown into a world where human civilization no longer exists. In addition, the game will have time-traveling features, similar to those of Radiant Historia.
VGChartz's Adam Cartwright: "Despite great support from a number of developers and publishers throughout the past five years, ranging from tiny indie studios to huge AAA publishers, the Vita has still been a console full of missed potential with a number of genres and major franchises sadly missing from the handheld. While games get cancelled for every console in existence, the Vita’s lukewarm worldwide sales meant a number of projects never saw the light of day that would perhaps have been made had things turned out differently."
Bioshock would've been awesome to have on the vita. I also wish Silent Hill HD Collection would've made its way there.
I believe Silent Hill HD Collection had an option to switch to the original voices
The option for original voices was for one of the games. Not both, though I can't remember which had the option and which didn't
The latest issue of Weekly Famitsu officially confirms that Chronos Materia, Gust’s 2013-announced PS Vita RPG, is no longer in development.
Chronos Materia was to be released on September 26, 2013, but was delayed and never received a new release date. Until now, Gust never officially cancelled the project. And even up until last earlier this month, its official website was still online.
Honestly, I didn't even remember about this game. Sad to hear about its cancellation.
They didn't cancel this game because they didn't think Vita was a decent market. Even if that was the case, PS4 would only be a worse one for a game like this.
Had this game on my 'watch" list...
Hmmm, I hope it gets another consideration for another [game] platform, or maybe it will get absorbed into a future project.
They didn't cancel this game because they didn't think Vita was a decent market, so a new platform isn't going to change anything.
At least there are numerous other Rpgs coming out for the vita. Looking forward to Stranger in Sword City, Trails of Cold Steel 2, God Eater 1 & 2, and Caligula to name a few...
Bandai Namco filed a trademark for “God Eater Resurrection” in Japan on May 28, which went public today.
Additionally, Gust Corporation filed trademarks for “Atelier Sophia” and “The Alchemist of the Mysterious Book” on May 20. Both also went public today.
I like the art style, it's quite neat. I would probably pick this up if it came to NA. :]
A job. I need a fucking job to buy the awesome Vita games. T_T
I am getting it even if I have to import this. I hope it will get localized though, it's games like this the Vita needs.
