The combined talents of Studio Ghibli and Level-5 bring us the hugely anticipated Ni No Kuni this week (available Friday 1st February). Join young Oliver in this heart-warming tale as he makes new friends and allies in an attempt to save his mother.
Bayonetta the mystery, she came along with a destiny. This is her life, a battlefield telling her who she is… Unleash brutal yet graceful attacks in this non-stop climax action title from the creative minds that brought you Devil May Cry.
If that’s not enough, EA’s Crysis 3 open beta will also be available this week, letting you experience the title’s unique sandbox multiplayer action before its official release in February 2013.
And still we’re not done! The good folks at Rockstar aim to please once more with another PlayStation 2 release – the great Grand Theft Auto: Vice City!
Having just made it back onto the streets after a long stretch inside, Tommy Vercetti is sent to Vice City by his old boss. But all does not go smoothly upon his arrival in the glamorous, hedonistic metropolis of Vice City. His only answer is to fight back and take over the city himself.

Hey Jawad. Can you please confirm if Dead Space 3 will have a digital release on PSN?
Thanks.
Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 3:35 pm by Jawad Ashraf
Yes.
52
Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 3:19 pm by KillaT2501
Good work on more PS2 Classics!
I would love any of those PS2 games on the VITA
53
Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 3:19 pm by MP_is_for_Chumps
Something positive now – Bayonetta for £12 is a great introductory price for a older digital title.
True the game is utter trash
because of how Platinum Games couldn’t be bothered to port the PS3 version properly from the xbox version, but still its a very good price for those who really want to play the game despite being so inferior on PS3.

@17 Bacon_Crispies
If you go to Latest Add-ons & sort by newest content first, then the two free Ni no Kuni familiars are there.
Jawad, I don’t think there are but any avatars today? Would love so much some Ni no Kuni ones.
Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 3:36 pm by Jawad Ashraf
No avatars today but there is a Ni No Kuni theme for PS Plus users.
55
Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 3:23 pm by Fantazyer
Will Dead Space 3 be available through PS Store?
Would like to get an answer as I’m still holding off on pre-ordering it….
Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 3:37 pm by Jawad Ashraf
That’s the plan, but we don’t have plans to have it on pre-order.
56
Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 3:24 pm by kivi95
55# Yes it will but no pre-order.
57
Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 3:26 pm by miguelfcp
what about Ninja Gaiden Sigma?? last week the US territory got it. I think Europe should get too.
58
Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 3:26 pm by hersenschimmel
God, I’m looking forward to Ni No Kuni. Have the Wizard Ed. preordered @ Amazon uk. Here’shoping I’ll get it before the weekend. Probably not :/
Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 3:39 pm by Jawad Ashraf
Good luck!
I’m just disappointed I couldn’t get the gorgeous gold coin from the US :’(
59
Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 3:26 pm by Fantazyer
Ah yes, thanks Kivi!

Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 3:28 pm by Furiekins
Ni No Kuni only £50 – bargain! So much better than £40 in a store, or £70 for the limited edition with cuddly toy and 500 page spell book.
Possibly the most important Sony exclusive this generation and offered at such a ridiculous price. The mind boggles.
Other than that, erm, next week looks good
61
Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 3:29 pm by aimeraya
You can buy a new limited edition Bayonetta on Amazon for 15 euros.~
Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 3:40 pm by Jawad Ashraf
Climax version? Doubt it.
62
Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 3:31 pm by supersmith2500
Btw, my questions:
1. When will Sly Cooper 4 demo come since US has it?
2. Any word from Superbot about the All-Stars Royale DLC Costumes?
3. When is R&C QForce coming for the Vita?
4. Will the Hitman games be released seperatly as well?
Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 3:41 pm by Jawad Ashraf
1. Nothing to announce yet…
2. Same…
3. Same again (sorry!)
4. Highly likely, stay tuned.
63
Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 3:33 pm by Luis_FFgamer
Any reason for why Ni No Kuni is only 6GB in the EU store as opposite to 21GB in US (6GB + 15GB) ?
64
Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 3:34 pm by HEC007
@48 It was already mentioned in December in the blog post about PS3 version that Vita release will be “early 2013″ so you can make your own conclusion …
65
Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 3:35 pm by markymillertime5
Still “discussing” spamstar are they?
66
Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 3:35 pm by Envirasu
This is one of the best store updates I’ve seen, honestly. I can feel a very strong sense of nostalgia pulling me towards those Dynasty Warriors titles…
Keep up the great work, guys!
67

Still no guilty gear accent core plus, what is sony europe doing this game is out worldwide except europe for nearly 3 months now and is out everywhere on xbox360, you can waste no time getting crap like dora out on the store, im seriously getting annoyed by this every week the guilty gear questions get ignored when it comes to the typical COD crap its answered instantly what the hell is going on, Sony you need to sort your store submission system policy.

Hi Jawad, can you please tell me when the 16 gb Ni no kuni file is available for download ? due to its huge size i would hope it goes up today so it will download in time for friday. Can you please clarify wether it’ll be available before friday or not untill friday. I did pre order btw and have had my wallet charged today. Thanks.
Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 3:43 pm by Jawad Ashraf
I believe it should download on the day but I can’t confirm at the moment.

Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 3:35 pm by jsvailster98
Is there any news regarding Ratchet Deadlocked HD?
70
Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 3:39 pm by kenduluk
Hi,
Is there a concrete date for the previously suggested Vita sale? Or is it just sometime in the future?
Thanks
Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 3:44 pm by Jawad Ashraf
Very soon!
71
Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 3:40 pm by gowreck
One Question:
I pre-ordered Ni No Kuni and got all the downloads done, but the download currently available is only about 6GB while everyone’s been talking of a 20Gig download size.
Why the size difference? Will another download be made available?
I just want to be able to play the game moment it becomes available to be played and keep all downloads done by then.
72
Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 3:41 pm by PEYJ
Hi Jawad
Will the Hitman Trilogy be sold separately as well?
Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 3:53 pm by Jawad Ashraf
Strong possibility but nothing to confirm yet.
73
Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 3:44 pm by arnau1555
Hi Jawad
any news regarding the Ps Vita dedicated sale?
Maybe next week or so?
Have a nice day
74
Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 3:44 pm by MaxiM_82
Well, I see that SCEE is hard at work to ensure low PS4 sales in Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Russian Federation, Sweden, Turkey and Ukraine.
75
Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 3:45 pm by MonsterRacer
Hi Jawad,
Any news about ratchet and Clank Q Force for PS Vita.
It should be released in January.
If I put my PS3 disc in and select the cross buy feauture it says the PS Vita version is available on Janary 19, 2013 but it’s still not there.
Can you please give us some information about this?
Thanks you very much
MonsterRacer

Please update the first post about dokuro, ive downloaded 4 times and its still not fixed.

The ‘Community Feedback Pack’ for Sleeping Dogs is missing from the store (Not the same as the community gift pack, BTW)
Also, pretty miffed the Sleeping Dogs is coming to Plus so soon – you only just had it on Sale and we know it sold well. This is happening a lot of late and making me reconsider my Plus renewal.
Also, will LBP2 be leaving Plus anytime soon? I want to actually BUY it, which I can’t do while it’s on the IGC.

Can NOT wait for Ni No Kuni!! Argh!! I’ve been watching Studio Ghibli movies, playing the demo. And Friday is STILL not here
I think I might just go to sleep….Can somebody wake me up when Friday comes please?
79
Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 3:50 pm by dark_angel69
Thanks for the heads up on Crysis 3 beta.
Wouldn’t have bothered going on to the store the day and wouldn’t have noticed it. lol. Am downloading it now.
As someone has previously said, its 1.4GB
I noticed people asking for the Dead Space 3 pre-order. Might be a good idea to allow people to pre-order now, pay for it/take out auto payment at midnight while it auto-downloads and will be fully installed for when they wake up. Well for the PS+ subscribers anyway. Just a thought
80
Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 3:51 pm by rob_dee81
Jawad, this whole Ni no kuni file size has got some of us fans who pre ordered worried that we wont be able to PLAY the second it turns friday 1st ……. please PLEASE clear all this up.
Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 3:54 pm by Jawad Ashraf
Yeah, finding out what I can on it.

Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 3:54 pm by Mon-Da-Hoops
Hi Jawad,
I’ve asked Activision about this and not got a straight answer so maybe you can help me out. Why is it that The Black Ops 2 Season Pass costs £41.99 on the UK Playstation Store but only £32.99-£34.99 on the Xbox 360 Uk Store? Will you look into getting this rectified? I can’t see how it’s fair that we need to wait 1 month after Xbox 360 and pay more.
Regards
Ryan
82
Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 3:55 pm by inzyster
Wow, I don’t recall being that impressed with the store update in a while, well done
I feel like I’m probably the only person who cares about this – any word on the full European PS Mobile rollout (or any word on when there will be any word on it)?
83

If anyone wants the new ‘SLY’ demo get it off the US PSN Store if you can. It was the best demo i have played this month for me:P
+ nice to see a few more PS2 games hitting PSN;)
+ i wish all the ‘Dynamic Themes’ had pre-views. I don’t fancy risking buying 1 if i don’t know if they look good or not.
85
Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 3:59 pm by ryannumber3gamer
So again we still don’t have the Sly Thieves in Time demo?! So the US PS Plus members got it last week and everyone in the US gets it today and yet we still don’t even got the demo. Again i’ll say i feel it’s unfair since the US get Sly Cooper Thieves in Time on Feb 5th (In other words about a week) and they have 2 demos while we have to wait till the 29th (or 27th i’m not sure.) Which is about 2 months and we still got 0 demos. I’m really disappointed, i was going to get the demo on both my PS3 and Vita if the demo was out today.
Also another thing is where is the PS All-Stars costumes? It’s almost been 2 months since the US got them and we are still waiting and i think they need to come out soon since Kat (from Gravity Rush one of the best Vita games ever!) & Emmett (From Starhawk)come next month.
Please will you guys give us some info about these. Will we only get the Paris demo of Sly or will we get that and the saving Sir Galleth mission that the US got with the R&C Trilogy?

Any news if the EU store is getting Xenogears as a PSone classic?

Didn’t know C3 was having a console “beta” Will check it out.
88
Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 4:01 pm by rob_dee81
i thought the whole PSN pre order policy was that you could download before release date so that its ready for midnight the day its released. 16 gb will take my internet about 10 hours to download so when everybody else who bought a solid copy is having fun im sat twiddling my thumbs. Can we have an official confirmed statement please because if it downloads on the day im cancelling my pre order and buying from store first thing friday morning. This is a pretty big issue so can you please find out before you go home. Thanks
89
Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 4:02 pm by ryannumber3gamer
@Jawad
So after reading through the comments, There’s still not even a confirmed date on the Sly demo yet!?.

Hello!
I can’t see the Port Royale dlc on the web based store which has been updated I believe?
Also I was checking out if xcom enemy unknown is on psn and i’m confused. It says ‘full game’ rather than ‘disc only’ but doesn’t seem to be available to buy?
92
Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 4:03 pm by GarethTaylor
Is there any reason as to why I am being charged for downloading the new Max Payne 3 DLC ‘Deathmatch Made In Heaven’, if I’ve already got the Rockstar Pass? All the other DLC that I haven’t downloaded so far say ‘Free’, but this doesn’t. But I’ve just downloaded it, under the impression that I would get it free. Not fair and angry and words of an understatement!!! :@

R&C qforce was announced for the 30 january on psvita 2 month ago and now nothing and you know nothing????? it’s a joke because it’s not funny
94
Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 4:10 pm by Jefferson050
im also confused about the whole ni no kuni preorder.
Even the helpdesk couldn’t tell me.
I also want to know when we can download the rest of this game.
Got a 5.8 gb file too.
Lets hope we can download this game fully before 1 feb and not on the day itself. 16gb is a long wait for some people and wait another 24hour(feb2) before its on your hd would be not cool.
95
Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 4:13 pm by Clocktick
Can we please get a monthly post that states what full game titles will be out that month as digital downloads on PSN.
I prefer buiyng my games on PSN even at a higher price, but it is very annoying not knowing if a title will be released or if I have to preorder the box version. Especially as preorders from physical retailers are done days before release meaning when the title is announced for PSN its too late.
96

Why are all those Koei games unavailable in so many countries? I don’t need them since I own all of them on disc, but it’s strange to see so many countries left out.
Nothing for me this week…

Good job Jawad, good to see that the Store is updated by the time the blog post is updated too. Also happy to see you getting in touch with us right after you post this.
Bravo to you and the team.
One question, where the Disgaea avatars removed from the store? I can’t seem to find any =(
@63
Ni No Kuni will have another part to download on Feb 1st, check the forums http://community.eu.playstation.com/t5/Role-Playing-Games-General/bd-p/66

Great update!
I have Ni No Kuni downloaded and was wondering when it will be available to play. Is it at midnight on friday? Or somtime during the day.
Thanks.

Posted on 30 January, 2013 at 4:17 pm by chalky83
any update on Dokuro? I don’t want to buy it if it’s still only giving the trial then having the hassle of a refund, I don’t think I ever got my refund for Mutant Blobs being broken at the vita launch (anyway of finding that out?)
