PS Vita gets PixelJunk Monsters: Ultimate HD on July 30

Release info locked down for revised Monsters

Double Eleven is giving PixelJunk Monsters a fresh coat of paint for PlayStation Vita later this month. PixelJunk Monsters: Ultimate HD will launch on July 30 and July 31 for North American and European PlayStation Network users, respectively.

At $14.99, the price is a bit high for those of us who already own PixelJunk Monsters in one or more forms, but that’s worth paying if you happen to be a first-timer. Ultimate HD includes the content introduced in the Encore expansion and Deluxe edition of Monsters, so you’re getting what should be the definitive version here.

Still one of my favorite tower-defense titles ever, due in part to the sheer challenge presented.
