Vita saved: New games confirmed at PlayStation Experience

Perhaps not completely saved, in fact still tucked away in Sony's so-last-year box but hey - the Vita gets a big game for 2015. At first I thought they said that Atlus will bring the PS4 and PS3 title Persona 5 west along with a Vita version, (UPDATE: Or not, guess i misheard still there was lots of other stuff coming!) based on the back of the success of Persona 4 Golden.

Of course, that's not to say Persona 5 Portable isn't in the works! However, we do (finally) get Resident Evil 2 Revelations (having been mis-announced and rumoured a few times) to the Vita via Capcom and Sony Third Party Studios. Plus an almost inevitable MLB 15 The Show.

Additional games coming for Vita include Geometry Wars 3, Transistor (I think, these guys really need to stick labels on everything) and the rather cute Xbox adventure Bastion. With some six million viewers tuning into watch the keynote speech, plus thousands more at the Las Vegas show, it was a lively old keynote bash.

UPDATE: EA is giving away Need for Speed on the Vita on PSN this weekend, not sure if that's US only but will check.

UPDATE: Shovel Knight, best indie game of the year, confirmed for Vita in 2015. Also coming is an all-new game, Severed from Drinkbox.

UPDATE: Gio Corsi announced Suidoken I and II coming to PS Vita (as in the PS One titles), Towerfall Ascension, with expansion pack DarkWorld plus Super Time Force Ultra (pictured), and strategy RPG The Banner Saga.

To go along with Grim Fandango, Day of the Tentacle will also be coming to PS4 and Vita.
