It's been a long time coming, but in the early hours of this morning, American developer Lab Zero Games confirmed via their Twitter account that they had finally nailed down a release date for their upcoming fighter Skullgirls 2nd Encore, and it's coming to the US next week.
Thrilled to finally announce that #Skullgirls 2nd Encore will be available on US #PS4 on 7/7! Pre-order now if you haven’t already!
Those waiting for the Vita version will have a little longer to wait, but Lab Zero Games has made a point of letting us know that they haven't forgotten their handheld audience.
We’re still working on #Skullgirls 2nd Encore for PS Vita, and hope to have it out 6 weeks after the initial PS4 release. Still cross-buy!
Skullgirls 2nd Encore will be released in North America with the store update next Tuesday. The Vita version is due by the end of the summer and will be a cross-buy title, with PlayStation TV support. There is no confirmation yet on an EU release for either version of the game yet.
