Heavenly Sword website now live *UPDATE: Heavenly Sword for the PSP?*
The Heavenly Sword official website is now up and running, it even offers a few videos and an area that allows registered site visitors to download fan packs that should contain artwork from the game. The bad part? Well, all that goodness seems to be reserved for UK visitors. Below are two screenshots of what the UK site for Ninja Theory‘s Heavenly Sword looks like:
And below is the North American page:
See the difference? Of course, it could be that the folks responsible for the US page have something up they’re sleeves and they’re still preparing to release said creativity upon the Internetz, but that’s just probably us being nice.
UPDATE: It seems that other folks went past what yours truly did and instead of just mining the European pages for information, since the US page is oh so amazingly blank, they went a step further and checked out the META tags for the Heavenly Sword Site using the view-source function of your browser of choice. What turned up?
What’s the big update? Get it after the Jump.

This has apparently fueled rumors about not only a possible PSP version of Heavenly Sword, but also an anime for it as well. What got people in that rumormongering mood? Methinks it’s the fact that back then we all thought that a God of War for the PSP was unlikely and look at what he have now. Moreover, Dante’s Devil May Cry anime is starting to make its rounds around the intertubes. People are in the mood to hope.
The big thing going against the likelihood of this rumor is that it’s very, very, very likely that those tags are just put there by opportunistic Internet Search optimization folks, seeing that Heavenly Sword does have an eastern feel to it, hence the anime tag, and it’s for the PlayStation 3, a member of the PlayStation brand that the PSP is part of.
Reason for us to be hopeful. Nope not enough reason yet. But if the rumor is true – that there will be an Anime and a PSP version for Heavenly Sword, then we wouldn’t be surprised if it is. Again, look at God of War.
Regardless of rumor Heavenly Sword is turning out to be one heck of a title to watch out for. Especially given the story details found in the Story section of the site.
