Devil May Cry 4 Refrain, the mobile spin-off of Capcom's hack-and-slash series, has been ported to the PS Vita. In this post, I will guide you on how to install the game on your PS Vita. This is an open-source wrapper that loads the official Android version of the game — you'll need your own legitimate copy of the Android app.
Devil May Cry 4 Refrain Introduction
Gameplay
Devil May Cry 4 Refrain is a mobile-focused take on Devil May Cry 4, putting you in control of Nero and his demonic "Devil Bringer" arm across ten levels and eight boss fights, with the series' signature mix of gunplay and stylish swordplay.
This PS Vita port brings that arcade-sized slice of DMC4 to your handheld.
Storyline
Refrain follows the same core setup as Devil May Cry 4 — Nero clashes with the Order of the Sword and eventually crosses paths with series mainstay Dante — condensed into a shorter, mobile-friendly campaign.
Note: This is not the main console/PC Devil May Cry 4 — it's the separate Refrain mobile edition. This is an open-source wrapper that loads the official Android executable — it is not a bundled copy of the game. You need your own legitimate copy of Devil May Cry 4 Refrain for Android to build the required data yourself, as shown in Part 1 below.

Part 2 - Install on PS Vita
How to install on your Vita
1. Install kubridge and FdFix by copying kubridge.skprx and fd_fix.skprx to your taiHEN plugins folder (usually ur0:tai) and adding two entries under *KERNEL in config.txt: ur0:tai/kubridge.skprx and ur0:tai/fd_fix.skprx. (Skip fd_fix if you're using the repatch plugin.)
2. Make sure you have libshacccg.suprx in ur0:/data/ — if not, use ShaRKBR33D to get it.
3. Install the .vpk loader on your Vita.

Is this the real Devil May Cry 4?
No. This is Devil May Cry 4 Refrain, a separate mobile spin-off, not the PS3/Xbox 360/PC game. This is also an open-source wrapper, not a bundled copy — you need your own legitimate Android copy, as shown in Part 1.
