Minecraft Enhanced (unofficially) heads to the Vita

PG Team delivered the gorgeous GTA Revisited trilogy to the Vita and have been hard at work with a fresh version of Minecraft Enhanced. A first teaser is up showing off the better-looking version with improved shaders and visuals of the legendary joyous rock-cracking experience.

This edition makes use of various Minecraft versions including the Bedrock Edition, effects from Minecraft: Java Edition and UI materials from Minecraft Dungeons and Minecraft Earth.
