Pygmy Studio and Rising Star Games have announced the release date for La-Mulana EX on Playstation Vita.

The metroidvania game focused on spelunking is finally hitting North America on March 3rd, and the following day, March 4th in Europe. The game was previously delayed until the end of this month, but now it’s definitely not coming out in February.

New to the PS Vita version are a host of features, as the “EX” in the game’s title hints. The features new to La-Mulana EX are as follows:

• Monster Bestiary—The new Monster Bestiary is where you can check out details of every monster you slay and character you meet. It’s useful to read, but you’ll also get to see some wonderful art for the creatures in the ruins.
• Gameplay—La-Mulana lets you go almost anywhere you like from the start, which can be a bit daunting to some. When we first started developing La-Mulana EX, the plan was to have two modes: the original version for returning players, and a revised adventure that was more accessible for new players. However, as time went on, we decided to bring both versions together in a way that improves the experience for everyone.
• Tweaks—This doesn’t mean we’ve made La-Mulana EX easier. Trust me, it’s still just as challenging as ever—it’s just also more accessible for those who might be too scared to enter the ruins otherwise. The signposting is improved, some of the puzzles and obstacles have been altered slightly (don’t rely on your memories if you’ve played the game before!), it’s now possible to undo the Hard Mode curse if you want to, and so on.
• Languages—We’ve even added more languages (French and German, on top of English, Spanish and Russian) and improved the old translations, so now even more people can enjoy La-Mulana than ever before.
