US: Future unleashes program on PSN

An exclusive agreement between Future and SCEA will see a new monthly digital program become available through the PlayStation Network as of Thursday (June 5th)

Entitled Qore: Presented by The PlayStation NEtowrk, the program is set to include playable demos, game previews, guides and interviews with developers and other key industry figures. The first episode will set gamers back $2.99, with an annual subscription price of $24.99.

Future US is also the publisher of PlayStation: The Official Magazine, which launched in North American last November.

Qore is a uniquely targeted product, reaching gamers in the interactive, high-definition environment of the console itself,” said Future Publishing Director Simon Whitcombe. For consumers it is a relevant and compelling new format for media, and for advertisers it’s a pipeline straight to the game-playing audience.”

The first episode of Qore will be hosted by Veronica Belmont, with support from Burger King, Universal Pictures, Activision and Codemasters.
