It's most likely a PS4 exclusive as it was announced by Dengeki Playstation. I couldn't imagine it being a PS3 or Vita game. Add it to the list of 2015 PS4 exclusives.

Unbelievable how these games just keep appearing from nowhere.

2015 on PS4 is insane. Physical and digital. There are big and small games getting announced or leaked everyday.

It's control over worldwide software sales and Xbox's lack off make it a very attractive platform to publishers. Street Fighter 5's deal was proof of that.

I can see it multiplat as PS3/PS4/vita game. Irem already finished working on the last game and it's for PS3. But it got canceled because of japan earthquake / tsunami.

At that time it's very sensitive to talk about earthquake / tsunami. Even sony canceled the release of Motorstorm Apocalypse in japan.

Also, Granzella is a very small devs who works only making items for PS Home. I don't think they can afford to release this game for PS4 only.

They're making a PS4 game, a Vita game and uploading titles to PSN shortly.

Freaking awesome! I was worried we would never see another one after the earthquake.
