Natsume has announced that they will be bringing End of Serenity to the Playstation Vita. The game was announced to be a digital exclusive playable on both the psp and ps vita.

End of Serenity is a JRPG originally developed by Kemco, the developer of the popular Mystic Chronicles. Mystic Chronicles wound up being so successful in North America that Kemco decided to bring us End of Serenity.

End of Serenity allows players over 120 unique battle skills to use. The press release says the battle skills can be used "both in and out of battle". I have absolutely no clue what that could possibly mean. End of Serenity also allows players to summon giant beasts during battle.
