PixelJunk Monsters (http://www.computerandvideogames.com/playstation-3/sim-strategy/10072/pixeljunk-monsters/): Ultimate HD has been announced for Vita.
The remake of the PS3 and PSP tower defence game is being handled by Double Eleven, the UK-based studio behind the Vita versions of LittleBigPlanet and Limbo, in collaboration with series creator Q-Games.
The graphics have been remastered for Vita and touchscreen input added to provide more control of protagonist Tikiman, who must protect his helpless babies from waves of incoming monsters.
Set for release this summer, Monsters Ultimate HD promises to offer more than 30 hours of gameplay set across story and challenge levels.
The title will also feature the Encore expansion, plus all the extra towers, enemies, and levels from the Deluxe edition on PSP.

Double Eleven chief operating officer Mark South said in a post on thePS Blog (http://blog.eu.playstation.com/2013/06/25/pixeljunk-monsters-ultimate-hd-coming-to-ps-vita/) that his studio "set out to make the definitive version of PixelJunk Monsters".
He added: "We agreed that our ultimate edition would stay focused on remaking the visuals for PS Vita's awesome OLED screen, introducing touchscreen controls that complimented the gameplay, and compiling everything featured in the PS3 and PSP versions.
"We also designed the Trophies to be an extra treat for those wanting even more challenge. Our best in-house players have taken three days solid to complete the game on the hardcore setting."
