Square Enix sticking by PSP

Publisher Square Enix has voiced its support for Sony’s PSP and vowed to continue to release many of its major IP both on physical UMD and through Sony’s growing digital PSN portal.

The PSP is a great portable device, for both disk-based and digital content,” VP of brand for the PAL region Larry Sparks told MCV.

We continue to support this platform and work within the market conditions to ensure our software releases are successful.

Crisis Core and Dissidia Final Fantasy have been successful releases and we intend to continue this pattern with Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep. The brand, the quality of each game and careful release timing, have all contributed to previous successful releases on the platform.”
