What The Hell Happened To The Gravity Rush?

Running up walls and across ceilings. Flying through the air in any direction, and manipulating gravity all within a unique and quirky, comic book-inspired light JRPG. If all of these things sound appealing to you, then odds are you are at least aware of the Gravity Rush games. Odds are even better that you’ve played them and enjoy them. You certainly aren’t alone. Those who got what Gravity Rush was going for on the PlayStation Vita back in 2012 weren’t coming up short with compliments for the game’s innovative gameplay, interesting main character, and absolutely beguiling world.

The game was revealed as an early title for PlayStation’s brand-new portable console and was one of the Vita’s most well-received early games, giving the Vita a nice little bump in popularity with fans of oddball games and JRPGs alike. While it was largely overshadowed by Uncharted Golden Abyss and Little Big Planet Vita, Gravity Rush sold very well in Japan at launch and even held its own in the west reasonably well at first. It wasn’t a huge surprise that the game turned out well I suppose, as the criminally underrated Sony-owned development team Japan Studio were the folks behind it. With many of the minds behind the OG Silent Hill and Siren games working on something, odds are it’s going to be good.

But even still, what they were able to pull off with Gravity Rush on a handheld was nothing short of amazing despite the limitations of the hardware, relatively small budget, and all of the headache involved of starting development on the PS3 and winding up finishing it on the Vita. Yet, here we are. 3 whole years after the launch of the second Gravity Rush on the PlayStation 4 and not even a whisper of another game in the series. So, what happened? Has Kat soared through the skies of the planes and villages of Gravity Rush for the last time? If so, then what the hell happened to Gravity Rush?
