Fans have been eager for cross play between the PS3 and PS Vita version of the game since the console’s launch. Now they’re in luck, as Atlus has announced that such a feature will come via a patch.

Dragon’s Crown is a 2D beat ’em up crossed with an RPG, and was developed by Vanillaware. The game features hand-drawn art and lets you play as one of four characters. Cross-play between the two version makes sense as the game is identical on both versions.

This announcement only mentions North America, but it’s fair to assume that it will apply to other Western countries as well. Americans are in luck, as this week, Dragon’s Crown is on sale this week for $10 off.

What do you think? Are you a Dragob’s Crown fan who wnated this feature? Are you more likely to play the game now? Let us know in the comments below.
