Joe Danger 2 Coming to PS Vita on January 13th

Hello, PlayStation.Blog! Did you have a good Christmas? We did. We slept and slept so we could fully recover from working up to PlayStation Experience, and now we almost feel back to normal. And ready for 2015!

So let’s kick it off. We’re excited to announce that Joe Danger 2: The Movie for PS Vita will be released in North America on January 13th.

In Joe Danger 2 for Vita, we have some special guest appearances, courtesy of our friends and neighbours Media Molecule. From the lovely Tearaway we’ve got Atoi and Iota, and from LittleBigPlanet we’ve got Sackboy.

They join all nine of the mercs from Team Fortress 2 and Steve from Minecraft. These were part of the PC version, from where we’ve also brought across a special Minecraft stage for Movie Maker, Joe Danger 2’s level editing mode.

Weirdly, all this actually makes Joe Danger 2 for Vita the biggest-ever version of the game! Hours and hours of play await across 85 levels, including 15 from the Undead Movie Pack, which comes included in the Downloadable Tours section — plus a total of 35 playable characters.

And like JD on Vita, which we released back in September, Joe Danger 2 runs at a super-smooth 60 frames per second, and features ghost downloads so you always have something to race against, online leaderboards, and new Vita-tuned controls. Plus, you can create new levels in Movie Maker mode using touchscreen controls, and of course there’s a set of Trophies to earn.
