Bring Back Gravity Rush

gamesreviews.com:

As Sony’s concerns over profit margins were discussed and rediscussed the web over, there was one mantra that it was hard to escape from. That mantra was BRING BACK GRAVITY RUSH.

I’m with you, Kat fans. That series was the perfect combination of cute and clever. It was like nothing else, and that’s a real shame. There should be more games like it. But there aren’t.

Why? Because they’re not as wildly successful as, say, Spider-Man. You can take a wild punt on a $300m game, and hope you make it to the top of the charts. Hell, release at a sensible time and spend enough in marketing and you stand a better than decent chance. Especially if you’re Sony.

That’s not true for Gravity Rush, which you know will only sell hundreds of thousands of copies. It might break even, but you’re not going to be making hundreds of millions of dollars off it.

We could spend hours analysing why that is. Not enough violence? The wrong kind of vibe? Maybe a toxic distrust of upside down blondes? I don’t know.

In the middle of all of this, a rumour that Gravity Rush 2 is indeed going to be re-released appeared. And not only that, but it’ll be coming to PC too. The insider said that it would be announced in May and released in the summer.

No word on the first, but discussion quickly went that way. Why would you release the second without the first? It’s the kind of logic that would make perfect sense if Sony hadn’t released Uncharted 4 before the PS3 classics. Wishful thinking demands we don’t pay attention to that.

There’s also a film in development. So while we won’t be getting any new adventures for the OG Kat, we will be getting new Gravity Rush releases in the very near future.

I can hear what you’re thinking, as you dust your hands off. There ya go. Sony’s financial woes are sorted. Gravity Rush was brought back, in a manner of speaking, and we can get on with our lives.

Alas, if the re-release rumours prove true and the film isn’t terrible (Uncharted absolutely was), fans will be
