Previously it has been Namco that has supplied the PlayStation formats with MotoGP titles, but this has now changed with Capcom having snapped up the publishing rights.
The first game from Capcom, tentatively titled MotoGP ’07, is scheduled for release in the autumn for the PlayStation 2.
“MotoGP is the most exciting motor sport on the planet and we are really thrilled to be partnering with them. This project clearly demonstrates Capcom’s intent to broaden its portfolio to include both original and licensed IP, work with the best developer talent and brands from across the globe to create new exciting gaming experiences. MotoGP is a multi-million unit selling franchise on PlayStation formats and we look forward to taking it to the next level,” said Capcom’s Mark Beaumont.
Despite securing the rights to publish titles using the MotoGP license across all PlayStation formats, thus far only a PlayStation 2 release has been announced.
