Grab That Whip And PS Vita, La-Mulana EX Is Coming!

La-Mulana EX is finally your chance to take the deadly adventure with you anywhere thanks to the power of the PS Vita. La-Mulana EX has you traveling undergound through lost cities, finding treasure, surviving deadly expiditions, hell go meta with it and explore actual city ruins while exploring digital city ruins!

La-Mulana EX looks to be upping the ante as well with Rising Star Games and Pygmy Studios doing their best to bring even more adventure to the already challenging game. At the moment exactly what those new features for the PS Vita are they are keeping guarded like a solid gold idol head. We’re hoping spiked traps, poison darts and of course a giant boulder await anyone who dares to try and find out those new features early. I don’t want a poison dart in the eye so I’ll wait patiently for their next press release.

You’ll notice in the screenshots below they’ve taken to add some background art to the sides of the screen keeping the La-Mulana EX content in the middle. Unlike other PS Vita games La-Mulana EX was designed with this classic limitation in mind. Unlike the recently revealed Resident Evil there will be no switching aspect ratios, players will just have to deal with the horrors of the unknown at the edges of the screen.


PRESS RELEASE

RISING STAR GAMES PARTNERS WITH PYGMY STUDIOS TO PUBLISH LA-MULANA EX

Western release of this exciting new PlayStation® Vita game coming in 2014
5th August, 2014  Rising Star Games’ digital escapade continues with another new partnership for 2014! Japanese developer Pygmy Studios has partnered with Rising Star Games to bring La-Mulana EX – a new version of the cult 2D action-adventure game – to PlayStation® Vita later this year.

Set in the fabled ruins of La-Mulana, players will help Professor Lemeza Kosugi embark on an exciting but incredibly deadly adventure. Armed at first with only his trusty whip, he’ll traverse through the lost city, finding treasures and discovering a bounty of unexplored caves, unsolved riddles and ravenous monsters. But with the ruins having claimed the lives of everyone that has ever entered, will Lemeza be able to survive in the quest to find the secret to life itself?
