PixelJunk Monsters 2nd Lap Hits PS3 In Spring, PJM Deluxe UMD Bound

Q-Games’ president Dylan Cuthbert offered up two pieces of news for PixelJunk fans today, revealing that PixelJunk Monsters 2nd Lap is hitting PSN later this spring and already-released PSP title PixelJunk Monsters Deluxe is making the jump to UMD.

More than a mere extension to the original PixelJunk Racers, 2nd Lap is a brand-new game that introduces a ghost attack mode, in addition to trophy support. Exclusive to PS3, the top-down racer is slated to hit PS3 later this spring. No word on pricing yet, however.

The physical release PixelJunk Monsters Deluxe is due out April 27 and will carry the same budget price point as its downloadable brethren at $19.99. As you may recall, this comes following dismal sales of the original PSN release, which subsequently led Cuthbert to question the value of investing further in their PSP presence. Here’s hoping the UMD release will give PJM Deluxe the attention it deserves.
