Long released in the US, Crave Entertainment‘s World Championship Poker 2 is crossing the Atlantic to the Continent and the Isles. UK-based Oxygen Games is in charge of bringing over the poker title and making it available not only to PSP owners, but to PC users as well, and in both cases with new packshots.

Since it’s been a long time from the last time we covered this particular title, we’ll pull up the refresher fact sheet on all the features of the PSP title. No details on any additional Euro-specific features that Oxygen add (or even new stuff such as webcam support for the PC, parallel to the exclusive EyeToy support for the PS2‘s version).

  • More poker – 14 different varieties of poker
  • More Stars – Play with the pros- In-game character likenesses, play styles and iconic signature personality traits of eight of the world’s best professional poker players, including Howard Lederer, Annie Duke and many more
  • More attitude – AI opponents with dynamic personalities, player controllable taunts, bluffs and tells.
  • More Gameplay – Active tell and bluff system, RPG-like upgradeable skill system and character outfitting
  • Broader audience appeal- With the choice of “Real Deal” simulation or “Power Play” arcade modes, WCP2 appeals to experience poker players as well as casual console gamers
