Borderlands 2 (http://www.joystiq.com/game/borderlands-2) is coming to PS Vita in the spring, Sony head of hardware marketing John Koller announced at a PlayStation event in Santa Monica today. Vita's Borderlands 2 includes DLC, and it will allow four-player co-op and cross-play with access to save games from the PS3 version.

The new, slimmer Vita (http://www.joystiq.com/2013/09/21/hands-on-with-sonys-lighter-slimmer-playstation-vita/) will launch in North America this spring, bundled withBorderlands 2 and an 8GB memory card for $200, Koller said. The remodeled Vita hit the UK (http://www.joystiq.com/2014/01/30/slimmer-vita-remodel-announced-for-europe-arriving-february-7/) on February 7 for £180 (just under $300), following its launch in Japan (http://www.joystiq.com/2013/09/09/new-ps-vita-remodel-coming-to-japan-in-six-colors/) last year. This new Vita is 20 percent thinner, 15 percent lighter, has an LCD screen rather than OLED, 1GB memory and a micro USB slot.

A God of War collection and a Sly Cooper collection are also on their way to Vita, courtesy of Sanzaru Games. The God of War bundle contains God of War 1 and2, and is due out on May 6. The Sly Collection includes Sly Cooper and the Thievius Racconus, Sly 2: Band of Thieves and Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves, and launches on May 27.
