Stoic Studios' The Banner Saga seems set for release on PlayStation Vita after all, with the developer being helped along by Sony's third party production team.
A tweet from Sony's Gio Corsi said the platform holder is stepping in to help publisher Versus Evil with the Vita version.
Great news! We're partnering with @vs_evil to continue work on #BannerSaga #Vita. More news in 2016. Happy Holidays! pic.twitter.com/txbawVDqpb

Last week Stoic announced that the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions of The Banner Saga are to be released on January 12th, 2016 but were silent on the long-promised Vita port.
On the game's forums, Stoic's founder and technical director said the Vita version was being placed on the back burner due to a limited budget and small development team but it seems Sony has stepped in to salvage production.
Corsi noted that more news on the Vita can be expected in 2016.
