The top-down, uber-violent game that has been quite a hit this year is finally going to the PlayStation 3 and Vita next week with the next PSN Store update. Hotline Miami will sell for $9.99 as a cross-buy game, so if you buy it for one console, you'll automatically unlock it for the other. The cross-buy even includes the ability to cross-save.
So what else is new with this version aside from cross-saving and the obvious Trophy support? The dev teams at Dennaton Games and Abstraction Games have created a new mask just for the PlayStation, and they are excited to introduce Russell the Raging Bull.
Russell is hidden early in the game, and when equipped will turn the entire game black and white save the neon text and red blood left behind as you rampage through each floor of every level. It’s a really neat effect, and even changes up the video filter a bit to give the whole game a classic film look.
If you're like me and you've been wondering what the hype has been about for this game, sounds like next week is the time to try it out.
