Vita games on show at MCM London ComicCon

Comic Con comes to London this weekend, and there's a few Vita games among the movies and merch-fest. With Tales of Hearts R, LEGO Batman 3, Akiba's Trip and Danganronpa 2 on show. Check out the meaty PDF file for all the details.



Sony has a PS4 stand, no sign of the Vita, there's also Ubisoft on the floor, Konami, 2K and Koei. Both TT games and Namco have panels, explaining their craft and latest products, and there's bound to be some news and fun out of the show, alongside the comic village, a smattering of cosplay and all the other goodies including an indie corner.

A few tickets are still available for Saturday, plenty for Sunday and Friday. If you can't make this one, there's another across three days next May.
