According to Cummins, the portable version of the game will retail for $14.99. PixelJunk Monsters: Ultimate HD will arrive in Europe and "the majority of Asia" the following day, July 31, and the port's Japanese release date will be announced "soon."

"PixelJunk Monsters: Ultimate HD game has been faithfully recreated for PS Vita in high definition, with 30+ hours of gameplay, online and ad-hoc co-op play and everything you loved about all the previous editions," Cummins wrote.
