DayZ mod for Arma 2 comes to Steam

Getting your DayZ on just got a little bit easier, as the popular zombie mod for Arma 2 is now available directly through Steam, making installation much easier. So long as you have Arma 2: Combine Operations installed, you can install the mod from within Steam itself, without the need for an extra program like DayZ Commander or the official installer.

Be warned, the simple install will be the last part of DayZ that you will ever be able to consider “easy.”

[Thanks, Chris]

Patapon 3 comes to Vita next week

Patapon 3 will become a PS Vita-compatible game next week. The news comes via the latest PlayStation Blogcast, episode number 62, wherein social media manager Sid Shuman and crew confirm the new PS Vita compatibility will be available alongside next week’s PSN update.

Predecessors Patapon and Patapon 2 are both compatible with PS Vita. A multiplayer demo for Patapon 3 was issued ahead of its launch a few years back, though our quick check on PSN shows that free demo is no longer available.

Darkstalkers Resurrection comes alive on PSN Mar 12, XBLA Mar 13

Darkstalkers Resurrection gnaws on the neck of North America’s PSN on March 12, before moving on to XBLA worldwide and Europe’s PSN for seconds on March 13, Capcom tells us. The all-in-one re-release of fighters Darkstalkers 3 and Night Warriors: Darkstalkers Revenge is priced $ 14.99/£11.99/€14.99 on PSN, and 1200 MSP on XBLA.

Shortly after Resurrection was announced, Capcom talked about the potential for another Darkstalkers game based on the success of this re-release, with company producer Yoshinori Ono very much behind the idea of a fourth entry in the series. If Resurrection proves a hit, we can probably expect Darkstalkers 4 in the not-too-distant future.

Devil Summoner: Soul Hackers comes with bonus soundtrack

Soul Hackers CD
Atlus is wonderfully consistent in its desire to bundle soundtrack CDs with the first printing of all its games. The latest package to receive musical accompaniment is Shin Megami Tensei Devil Summoner: Soul Hackers for 3DS, out April 16 in North America.

Copies pre-ordered or purchased at launch from “participating retailers” (including GameStop and Amazon in the US, and EBGames, VGP, and Amazon in Canada) will be packaged as a “boxed set” with a soundtrack CD, containing new arrangements of Soul Hackers’ music. Of course, since the original Soul Hackers never came out in North America, it’ll be hard to spot the new arrangements.
