Saros delivers Returnal 2 in all but name

Housemarque's Returnal remains one of the best PS5 games. Built to kill, raised to die, and fine-tuned to annoy the shit out me while dragging me back in for yet another go at  2AM.  Not-a-sequel Saros ropes in my one of my favourite actors Rahul Kohli into the mix with proper shields, greater weapons freedom, Indian-styled visuals, and borrowing  Xenon 2: Megablast's palette and violence.  Saros is set on Carcosa, a shape-shifting, hostile alien planet.

Vita sales 200,000 down on 2014 in Japan, where's the big spike coming from?

We're into the summer slump now with not much happening on the Media Create chart, and Vita sales drifting gently lower again. However, looking at the bigger picture, comparing the sales so far over this year and the last two years, the Vita is already 200,000 sales down on 2014, and 50,000 down on 2013's numbers.

Nothing seems to have moved the Vita since the last God Eater, and while there's another one on the way, most titles seem mildly popular at best. Will Sony Japan try and pull out an ace for the Vita at Tokyo Game Show, or will it follow its western counterparts and let it drift to focus on PS4?
