Square Enix has announced it’s to hold discount its existing Vita titles to date in Japan beginning next week on the Japanese PlayStation Store. Lord of Apocalypse will be priced at ¥2,980 ($36), down from ¥4,980 ($61). Army Corps of Hell will be discounted to ¥1,990 ($25) from ¥3,990 ($50).

The offer runs from next Tuesday until Monday, May 7. Thanks, Siliconera.

Square Enix will release a second and extended demo of Lord of Apocalypse in Japan later this month, according to Siliconera. The new taster will allow players to play up to chapter 3 of the game, as well as connect with friends and fight against Ctuhulu. If players decided to buy the full game, they can carry over save data from the demo into the full game and continue where they left off.

A pamphlet for a US retail store has been posted over on Gematsu, and it lists a few interesting tidbits which should get your mouths salivating. According to the business document, Vita versions of Monster Hunter Portable 3, Final Fantasy X, and Lord of Apocalypse were listed. While the later has already been released in Japan, and FFX is in the works for the handheld, neither title has never been confirmed for US localisation, despite a few rumblings on the matter. However, rumors regarding Monster Hunter Portable 3 hitting the device, have been around almost as long as the official announcement of Vita. We’ll send a mail to all respective parties, and hopefully we’ll get a nibble or two. Until then, consider all of this a wonderful rumor.

Square Enix has released a new trailer for Lord of Apocalypse, giving a gist on what its story is all about, as well as the odd bit of gameplay. Get it after the break, via Andriasang. The RPG’s out on PSP and Vita as a launch title on December 17. A PSP demo will release later this month, as mentioned yesterday.
