Gravity Crash PSP gets the PS+ upgrade treatment

Following on from June's Killzone Liberation update, Just Add Water's sparkling shooter Gravity Crash for the PSP is up next. Still on the UK PSN store for £5, with the Vita Ultra edition randomly only £2.50. 

Not that it matters much, with the original version getting a boost and relaunch for PlayStation Plus Premium subscribers on PS4 or PS5, along with Twisted Metal 1 & 2 from the PSone this month. The usual upgrades of  up-rendering, rewind, quick save, and custom video filters are mentioned, hopefully with trophies.

The 2010 release riffs off Lunar Lander, players explore planets, zip around the bright-green vector-LED-style landscape. Rescuing astronauts, finding secrets and topping up fuel, opening the gates to new areas and fighting off the space nasties are all done against the clock. 

Gravity Crash

With tight controls and millimetre precise gameplay, Gravity Crash is a cracking piece of retro-modern arcade fun with huge challenge, and the brutally fun Gold Grabber Robotron-style mini game for relaxation! 

Just Add Water is still going, recently helping out felling British portable heroes FuturLab with Power Washer Simulator and Mike Bithell with Volume, also working on the Oddworld remasters and Sniper Elite VR. Maybe they'll revisit this someday for a 4K OLED-exploding edition!
