This game has already been released on PC, PS4, Xbone, and 3DS, but somehow it completely flew under my radar until the announcement of its upcoming Vita port. I think it looks pretty awesome!

About

Cursed Castilla is an arcade action platformer full of creatures from medieval myths from Spain and the rest of Europe.

The tears of a young witch have been turned by a demon into a key that opens up a gateway for the evil in this world. The King Alfonso VI of León has gathered his loyal knights to get to Tolomera del Rey and finish the nightmare using the power of the Witch’s tears. Banish the zombies and demons that entered the Kingdom of Castile with Don Ramiro, the loyal King’s Knight, and his friends. For that, you will use a different range of weapons to defeat your enemies through the cursed lands of Tolomera, in a pure classic arcade action style.

Features

• Explore Tolomera del Rey in depth through to 8 game stages
• Fight against 48+ types of enemies and 19 final bosses
• Banish the evil invading the Kingdom with 4 different endings
• Become a seasoned monster hunter with the illustrated bestiary with unlockable information about the legends featured in the game
• Brag about your combat skills with 16 unlockable trophies
• Yell your battle cry with songs for the original soundtrack and the remastered audio
• Revive the glory of the arcade times with 10 different screen view modes

It's also getting a limited edition physical release, but I have a feeling it might already be sold out.

I haven't played it, but it looks really good from what I've seen on YouTube.

Check out this video review.

Cross-buy? I already have the PS4 version.

Sweet, I missed out on the PS4 physical release. Hope I can nab this one.

Locomalito is kinda VIP now, maybe this post is redundant, but if you're not familiar with his games... it's time to familiarize. =P

Check out locomalito.com dude is awesome.

Nice, this is a perfect game for the Vita. And that collectors edition looks nice.

It is! All his games are very direct homages, but it is very well done, quite a bit more "fair" (no RNG spawning nonsense), and it's not like Capcom is doing anything with the series.

Daimakamura is one of my favorite series, and this is as good as it gets for now, until Battle Princess Madelyn.

Vita is still getting games? Thats actually impressive. Might have to dust mine off.

Ultimate GnG is one of my favortie portable games. Will definitely try this.

Amazing news!

It's an awesome game, and the 3DS and console ports were great so I assume it will be the case of the Vita version.

If you like the GnG-like platformers, it's your game.

If you need more references check out Super Hydorah, the other game (in this case a R-Type/Gradius-like horizontal shmup) they released on PC & XBO and very likely more platofrms in the near future. Both games are pure gold.
