Soul Sacrifice (ソウル・サクリファイス) is an action adventure video game developed by Marvelous AQL and Japan Studio and published by Sony Computer Entertainment for PlayStation Vita. It was released worldwide throughout 2013 on March 7 in Japan, April 30 in North America and May 1 in Europe.
The core mechanic of the game is the ability to sacrifice parts of the character's body or items to create devastating attacks. These sacrifices will be permanently marked on the player character's body, meaning that they are not an infinite resource that can be tapped into.[2] Its release in North America and Europe has been confirmed for April 30 and May 1 respectively.[3][4] The concept was created by Keiji Inafune, best known for co-designing Mega Man. An upcoming game for the PlayStation Vita, titled Soul Sacrifice Delta, was announced during TGS 2013, and is due for a March 2014 release.
