Here's a bit of behind-the-scenes info: for as long as Push Square has been attending UK trade shows, Introversion Software has been showing Prison Architect. No, seriously, there's not a year gone by where the isometric cell simulator hasn't been on display at EGX, Rezzed, or any one of the numerous other British-based games conventions.
Apparently it's finished, though, and is coming to the PlayStation 4 this Spring. The port's being handled by the good folks at Double Eleven, and, as is the case with the PC version, will see you managing every minute detail of your criminal container. There's a main campaign which will walk you through the basics, but you'll also be able to create your own designs and share them online.
Lights out will begin this Spring.

Been quite interested in this... My Criminology degree will not go to waste!
Prison Architect is an amazing game which I've spent a fair amount of hours and money with this game on computer. I hope that the port goes well because I feel it would damage the over-all reputation of the game from the perspective of the console players.
This game was easily one of my favourites on PC last year. As someone who loves the older Bullfrog games, this is one of a think. Not sure if it'll translate well to console though
I don't suppose a Vita version is in the works?
@LieutenantFatman
No word on a Vita version in the blog, just sole mentions of the PlayStation 4 release. Maybe in the future, ey?
The devs have said it will not be coming to Vita even though they have "mad love" for the console.
I was going to get it on PC but will see how this turns out on console
