Idea Factory Working On PS4 Game, Soul Sacrifice Changed Vita Plans

A couple of tidbits came out from an Idea Factory interview with Famitsu magazine. The company that develops Hyperdimension Neptunia and Mugen Souls is working on a PlayStation 4 title.

Perhaps more interesting are the company’s thoughts on PlayStation Vita. Compile Heart, a sister  company to Idea Factory, released Monster Monpiece and the charming, curry-making roguelike Holy Sorcery Story for the Sony’s handheld. Hyperdimension Idol Neptunia PP is also in development and the game is essentially like the Idolm@ster with characters from the Neptunia universe.

While Idea Factory has been supporting and thriving on Vita, as indicated by re-shipments of Monster Monpiece, they almost gave up on the system. In the beginning, only Monster Monpiece was in development and after that they were going to cease Vita development. However, when Sony announced Soul Sacrifice they decided to focus on Vita and develop more games for the system.
