"PSN will likely be happening a tiny bit after Wii U, Steam, and XBLA," Gaijin said on Twitter. "We don't have a final date yet, but likely next week." It'll run to both PlayStation 3 and Vita.

If you missed the Runner instalment of BIT.TRIP, it's an auto-running rhythm game, where you need to jump, slide, attack, block and whatnot in time to funky beats.

Runner2 will cost $15. Steam's offering a 10% pre-order discount, making it $13.49, plus a copy of BIT.TRIP RUNNER and some snazzy sneakers for Team Fortress 2's Scout and Demoman.
