    It's July, and I'm admittedly not back on track. In part that was deliberate because I wanted to wait a bit since there wasn't a whole lot new to include after last months very late update, but still the plan was do get to it a bit earlier. Still, it's not quite as late as last month. Anyway, here it is, my monthly list of current and upcoming titles for the PlayStation Vita. As usual it is focused on the North American market, with Europe and Japan exclusive titles in their own sections below.

    This month's releases is a selection of indie games of all sorts and shapes. Puzzle games (Waking Violet, Phil's Epic Fill-a-Pix Adventure,) shoot 'em ups (Super Destronaut DX, Ice Cream Surfer,) a tower defense platformer (Spacejacked,) and a procedural generated metroidvania side-scroller thing (Chasm.)

    Shifting to new games, Aksys again delivers with localizations of Demon Gaze developer Experience's horror adventure Death Mark, as well as more otome with Code: Realize: Wintertide Miracles. Indie adventure games Stay and The Dreamlands: Aisling's Quest are also coming, as well as the remaster of the infamous Night Trap. Over in Japan, Experience confirmed a Vita release for their sequel to Death Mark simply called NG, while Gameloft revealed they're porting their mobile hack 'n slash RPG Dungeon Hunter 5 (no news about a western release so far.)

    In less happy news, the rumored YU-NO localization was finally confirmed, but only for Steam and PS4. So barring remote play, the Vita is sitting this one out. Also the release of Omega Labyrinth Z was abruptly canceled. The translation is most likely done, and could in theory be used for a mainland Asia release in the future, but for now that game will not be available in English.

    And I think we're done. Not much in the way of confirmed releases for next month, so you'll have to settle for a bit of low-budget... charm with The Dreamlands: Aisling's Quest:
