Rainbow Skies to light up on the Vita

Rainbow Skies was first mentioned for the Vita back in February, its taken six months but we finally have confirmation via the EU PSN blog which tags the game as a PlayStation exclusive with Cross Play between PS3 and the Vita.
Rainbow Skies is more than just a sequel. We’ll be introducing many new features, including monster taming, an advanced battle system with new combo attacks, new dungeon action elements, a new dialogue and emoticon system, new treasure hunt quests, an improved side quest system, explorable buildings, and new mini games.

The game is approach completion but has months of testing to undergo according to the developers, SideQuest, so don't expect anything until 2014.
