Borderlands 2 PS VITA Unboxing Video

Sony mentioned today that Borderlands 2 on PlayStation Vita will only include two-player co-op after originally promising four-player multiplayer.
In a new hands-on post on the PlayStation Blog, Justin Massongill, a social media specialist for Sony, detailed the cutback multiplayer offerings for Vita owners. "We checked in with the [Sony Computer Entertainment America] third-party production team, who confirmed that while they strived to include four-player co-op in the game, they made a decision late in their development cycle to focus on providing the best two-player-only co-op experience possible," Massongill wrote. "As a result, the maximum co-operative player count for Borderlands 2 on PS Vita is capped at two."

Borderlands 2 comes out on Vita on May 13, though a new PlayStation Vita bundle includes the game and is slated for release May 6. Stay tuned to IGN for a full review of the portable version of the first-person shooter.
