Nihilistic Software has released a new trailer and new multiplayer details for the upcoming PS Vita title ‘Resistance: Burning Skies’.
D. Reed Monroe, Designer at Nihilistic Software, took to the Playstation Blog to announce the multiplayer details as well as debut the new trailer. The new Resistance game will feature both a single-player campaign as well an online multilayer mode of up to 7 friends via the PSN. Monroe had this to say about brining the title to the PS Vita:
