When Limited Run Games announced it was holding its first-ever E3 showcase, many were excited at the prospect of seeing a barrage of new releases for the PlayStation Vita. Thankfully, the company didn’t disappoint, revealing a number of physical releases for the the Sony handheld.
As Limited Run Games has quickly become one of the last champions of the Vita, even as the system (somewhat slowly) heads into the sunset, it’s exciting to know there are even more games on the horizon. From indie darlings like Super Meat Boy and Papers, Please to retro hits like Metal Slug 3, there are plenty of reasons to keep a hold onto your Vita.
Here are all of the releases announced at the Limited Run Games E3 2019 showcase:
- Guacamelee! – available on June 14, 2019

Unfortunately, there’s a strong chance that this may be at least the beginning of the end for Limited Run releases for the Vita. With production recently ending on the Vita, there’s no way to tell how much longer we’ll see support for it. And considering how much of a hassle it seemingly was for Limited Run Games to get its hands on Vita carts previously, we could be nearing the end of an era. However, the fact that there are so many physical releases on the horizon is certainly cause for celebration.
