Well, this is a bit odd. Yesterday, Double Eleven send over a press email under embargo until March 6th, but then today took to the PlayStation blog to announce the embargoed news. So, the lid is off and the secret is out: PixelJunk Shooter Ultimate is coming to PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita this summer!
PixelJunk Shooter Ultimate is an upgraded compilation of the first two PixelJunk Shooter twin-stick liquid physics puzzle shooters. More than that, it takes the content of the two games and seamlessly combines them into a single, flowing campaign. New features introduced in the sequel will even be available in the original game’s chapters for a unified experience.
Double Eleven is also working on a bunch of other enhancements, including completely overhauled visuals (real-time lighting, new special effects, higher resolution particle effects, tweaked color palette, etc) running at 60 frames-per-second, a new ship remodeled in 3D, a more intuitive and informative minimalist HUD, a re-balanced scoring system, and cross-play and cross-save between platforms.
The PS4 and Vita desperately need more completely new, original titles, but clearly PixelJunk Shooter Ultimate is not just some last-gen port slapped together with a fresh coat of paint. Having two of the best digital download games from the PS3 new and improved for PS4 and Vita could never be a bad thing.

Double Eleven did a great job with the PC version. Curious to play this on PS4.
freemantim I’m actually more eager to have this portable on the Vita, even though that version probably won’t have all the fancy new effects that the PS4 can produce.
Playing on the Vita would be fun, but there is something glorious about the liquid physics that look so impressive on a big screen. Definitely curious to see how the 3D models of the ships look.
