Eastasiasoft drops a physical LE in the Chasm

Chasm launched on the Vita in summer 2018, a superb pixel-based Metroidvania, and another game I never got round to reviewing (adds to list). Eastasiasoft continues to roll out the collectibles with a smart LE version, packing an audio CD, manual, fresh trophy list and those elusive Vita carts.

A decent 2,500 production run for the BitKid developed underground adventure goes on-sale on 6th August, and includes the recent patch that added Arcade mode, making the game more accessible to some players.

Still some copies left, order here.


Currently playing on my Vita/PS3/PS4/PS5
