ncsoft - NCsoft signs exclusive deal with Sony

NCsoft has today announced an exclusive game development deal with Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. that will see NCsoft create several online games for SCEI's PlayStation platforms including PS3 and PSP.

Currently no specific titles have been announced but we do know that both newly created and existing intellectual properties will be used.

"We are delighted to be working with Sony Computer Entertainment. PS3, with its advanced Cell Broadband Engine and standard hard disc drive on every unit, has already demonstrated it is a truly versatile online platform that gives NCsoft the potential to create massively multiplayer environments," said Geoff Heath, CEO of NCsoft Europe. "Together with the Internet-enabled PSP, we're confident that SCEI and NCsoft can develop unique and compelling online experiences that will be found on no other platform."
