When Atlus first revealed Dragon Crown's release date, the publisher said that cross-platform play simply wouldn't be possible. Thankfully developer VanillaWare seems to have overcome the technical hurdles to and is bringing Cross-Play between PS3 and Vita in a new patch, due soon.

Atlus confirmed the cross-play patch yesterday. The patch will allow PS3 and Vita owners to join each other's sessions. However, although the game supports cross-play, there is no cross-buy. You'll still have to buy each game separately on the PlayStation Store.

Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?

  Damnit i was hoping for Cross-Buy that would have been a instant purchase for me. Right now they want too much for this.

    I've been reading the news assuming it was cross-buy.. so after a month or so since launch they've added cross play? Wasn't that there at launch for those that forked out the cash for two copies?
