1080p PS4 Gravity Rush Remaster Coming Sooner Than Expected

The PlayStation 4 version of Gravity Rush, one of the prettiest PlayStation Vita games ever, will launch on February 2, 2016, Sony has announced. That's one week earlier than expected.

The news comes from a PlayStation Europe tweet, but the new date appears to be worldwide, as February 2 is also listed on Amazon's North American website.

Gravity Rush's Remastered version is in development at Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection studio Bluepoint Games. The HD version sports 1080p graphics and comes with the following expansions:

• Spy Pack
• Maid Pack
• Military Pack

Gravity Rush was one of the best games released for PlayStation Vita early in its lifespan (and was originally meant to land on PS3). It's an action-platformer where players are able to manipulate gravity--hence the title.

As GameSpot's review noted at the time, the combat was somewhat lacking, although the game's visuals were widely lauded, and with good reason.

Gravity Rush 2 is currently in development for PS4 and is slated to launch in 2016. A new boss battle gameplay trailer was released during Paris Games Week last month.
