Following on from Sony’s Gamescom Press Conference, the company has released a new trailer for Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time as well as more details about the cross-play and cross-buy features in the game. In addition to featuring cross-save, the game will also use Augmented Reality using the PS Vita to help you collect some valuable items as you play through the PS3 version of the game.
At the Gamescom Press Conference, Sony announced that Ratchet & Clank are coming to the PS Vita in Ratchet & Clank: QForce. The game will be available on both the PS3 and PS Vita, and will support full cross-play and cross-save support. The new Cross-buy initiative will also be extended to QForce, meaning anyone purchasing the PS3 version will be able to download the PS Vita at no additional cost.
At Sony’s Press Conference at Gamescom earlier today, Cross-Buy for the PS Vita and PS3 was formally announced. We’ve seen cross-buy already with titles like MotorStorm RC and DLC, but PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royal will be the first full game to support the initiative.
