And so that older players will have no problems jumping in, "Dragon's Crown Pro" will also have cross-save support from the PlayStation 3 and PS Vita so they can continue where they left off from the original version.

Developed for the PS3, represents the first HD video game developed by Vanillaware (previously named Puraguru). The game was simultaneously produced for the successor to the PlayStation Portable, the PS VITA with all the bells and whistles of the PS3 version intact.
