PlayStation Vita Pets set to release in June

PlayStation Vita Pets, Sony's adorably cute puppy simulator (awfully similar to Nintendogs), will be released for PS Vita on June 3, Sony announced today.

"The team at Spiral House set out to make something that was more than just a pet sim – we wanted to make something that felt like a real game, with characters, fun and adventure, so that’s exactly what we did," SCEA producer Jenny Murphy said.

In the gmae, you will pick from four different puppies, each with their own personality, sense of humor, and character traits. While inside of your home, you can dress, play with, bathe and train your dog. But once you and your puppy get to know one another and learn the skills to safely venture outside, you can head to Castlewood Island and uncover the long lost legend of a king and his dog. This will involve exploration and puzzle solving.

"None of this is possible without your pet pal though, through nurturing, training and playing together your dog will gain the skills you both need to be able to progress deeper into the world, crawling, pulling, digging, jumping and more will all come into play if you want to be able to uncover all the secrets of Castlewood Island," Murphy concluded.

Adorable.
