Our trans-atlantic brethren can now enjoy the latest title from the masters of 2D hand-drawn games, Vanillaware. The game sells for $49.99 for the PS3 and $39.99 for the PS Vita; the game is available beginning today in stores and on PlayStation®Network as a digital download.

Also available are new Dragon’s Crown avatars and a XMB theme so you can proudly show off the character art from the game online. The game also features cross-save functionality with PSVita (but not cross-buy unfortunately). In a nice launch-month deal, the DLC pack – which replaces the in-game narrator with the voice of one of the six playable characters – will be free for one month.

Players who purchase the game early enough can snag their copy of Dragon’s Crown Artworks, a 64-page artbook featuring full-colour prints of art from the game.
