See if this tactical strategy game is worth your time on PS Vita.
Limited Run Games’ first physical PS Vita release Breach & Clear has been released yesterday with an overwhelming success.
At 11:30 a.m. (EST), orders for Mighty Rabbit Studios’ tactical strategy game Breach & Clear could be placed for $24.99 via Limited Run’s online shop and after 103 minutes, all 1,500 printed copies have been sold out.
Yes, they already announced two other limited physical editions, Saturday Morning RPG and Cosmic Star Heroine for both PS Vita and PS4.
Yep, this is the final nail. This proves physical gaming is dead, and there's no market for it.
I'm joking obviously, but this proves what I've been saying for years. Physical gaming won't die because there's a market for it, and since there's a market do you really think greedy companies like EA and ubi would leave money on the table? I think not.
For those unaware Limited Run Games is aiming to make physical game releases a reality for independent previously digital-only titles.
Their first sale begins with Breach & Clear for the PlayStation Vita limited to only 1,500 copies on Thursday (October 29th), with a further sale next month for PlayStation 4 title - Super Morning RPG.
Crash Landed breaks down all the details.
Awesome, I really like the sound of this:
"We are Limited Run Games a publisher of limited run physical games for PlayStation Vita and PlayStation 4. We focus on bringing games that were previously only available in a digital format to a physical medium. We're game collectors and players who fear the prophesied all-digital future. We hope that we're not crazy to think that there is other people like us that still want physical games."
This is cool but is Breach & Clear really the best Vita game they could secure to release for retail? Maybe try a Vita exclusive, or like, just something better.
Limited Run Games popped up out of nowhere early this month, promising to do exactly what their name states and do limited physical printings of games that would otherwise remain digital-only. The first one comes tomorrow, so get your wallet ready.
