Sega And Planet Moon Announce New PSP Project Based On Classic Sega Brand

Planet MoonSega has teamed up with Planet Moon Studios (Giants: Citizen Kabuto, Armed & Dangerous, Infected) to develop and publish a new PSP game based on a “fan favourite” franchise. The game’s name itself has not yet been revealed, but it’s a “classic brand”, more information regarding that should follow soon.

This makes it the third resurrection of an old Sega franchise announced in the last few months. Previous ones include a partnership with Totally Games, also on a yet unnamed brand, and the upcoming 2007 release of Golden Axe developed by recently acquired studio The Secret Level.

Scott A. Steinberg, Vice President Of Marketing at Sega Of America commented, “Planet Moon’s reputation of creating critically acclaimed games makes them the perfect choice to inject originality and ingenuity to our classic IPs.”

Planet Moon Studios have a notorious reputation for their humorous and innovative games. Giants: Citizen Kabuto is still, as of today, one of the craziest games to hit the video game market, and Armed & Dangerous, released for consoles in 2003, could be considered as equally wacky. Personally, I wasn’t too fond of Infected, their last PSP effort, but I can’t wait to see what these guys come up with next, especially in conjunction with a Sega franchise.
