ver 2.00.00

Overall

New Additions and Modifications

  • From PSM SDK 2.00.00 and later, platforms for which master submissions can be made are PS Vita and PS Vita TV only.
    • If a title created with PSM SDK 1.x has already been released, it will not be possible to submit a master package that was created with PSM SDK 2.x and has the same Application ID. To update the title, use PSM SDK 1.x to create/submit a master package. For details, refer to "Creating and Submitting a Master" - "Master Package Upgrade Restrictions Among SDK Versions".
