Gravity Rush was one of my favorite games from 2012 and easily my favorite title on the PlayStation Vita. While I am aware of it's faults, I still can't get over the beautiful the art style and the unique world the game is based within. Ever since I finished the game I have been anxiously waiting for a sequel to be announced. And the other day my prays may have been answered. At Tokyo Games Show, Sony shown a short teaser trailer featuring art work and footage of protagonist Kat jumping around and manipulating gravity. While this isn't an announcement as such, it is most likely a hint at confirmation for a new Gravity Rush game. There are many unanswered questions about this supposed Gravity Rush sequel (like is it even a sequel?) and I'll do my best to pick through the trailer to find any details that give hints towards the final game.
So without further a-do, watch the video below!
Yep, the start of the trailer shows Japan Studio's logo. They make the game, so nothing out of the ordinary here.
This piece of art looks to be a floating house boat? Who knows... And whether it will play a sufficient role in the games story or just a random shot is unknown.
The image on the left appears to be refugees with all their belongings in the back of a flying truck, maybe escaping the city? That might actually make sense seeing as the other picture on the right appears to the city over grown with weeds and trees. Could they be leaving because they driven out or could it just be a nature friendly part of the city?
The floating city featured in the middle image looks different to Helseville, they city from the original game. It could be a completely different city or Helseville could have drastically changed. Whether the new game is based far into the future and the city has evolved over time or it has been invaded by something? Though that last one seems unlikely because the image below shows that the city seems to be in a good state.
This piece of concept art is the clearest picture shown in the trailer and shows Dusty, Kat and Raven floating around in an extremely populated city. Now that I look at a closer angle, I am not very confident that they're still in Helseville, it looks completely different.
Kat is asleep, has she lost her memory again?
Oh, she's awake!
Kat as she jumps through a lower section of the city.
She's probably thinking something along the lines of ''Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee''. I know I would be...
The city looks great but similar to the original game. Does this mean the game is once again on the Vita and hasn't moved to the PS3 or PS4?
Why are you in such a 'rush', Kat?
In all the screen shots above that show Kat using her gravity powers, she has pink strands coming out from the bracelets on her wrists. They weren't there in the first game. Is this an indication that she has new or improved powers? Whatever the case, it looks cool!
Another thing to note about the footage shown in the trailer is that the colour tone is quite different. Instead of the green and orange skies and buildings everything seems to have a cooler tone with more blues. Personally I think it looks a lot better!
Hey, Kat!
''Fall Again''? Yep, a new Gravity Rush.
''A new project from Team Gravity''? Second yep. Gravity Rush 2 is surely a thing.
So there you have it, the Gravity Rush teaser broken up. Whether I actually found anything about the game is up in the air, but you might have found out something you may have missed (unlikely)!
Are you excited for a Gravity Rush sequel or have you noticed something I missed? Leave a word in the comments below or on Life's a Game Facebook page!
Drew is a huge fan of Gravity Rush and he hope's it will become a franchise big enough to stand tall along Sony's greatest.
