Sony Online Entertainment LLC (SOE) and indie videogame developer Rockin' Android announced today a collaborative effort, in which the two companies will localize, produce and release doujin, or Japanese-style indie video games, for the PlayStation Network. The three titles scheduled for simultaneous release in May 2010 are Gundemonium Recollection, GundeadliGne, Hitogata Happa.
"Bringing the Rockin' Android Gundemonium collection to the PlayStation Network further strengthens our position as a leading publisher for independent titles on the PSN" said Jason Herzceg, Director of Business Development at SOE. "Being the first publisher to bring doujin games to the PlayStation Network demonstrates our desire to deliver new genres filled with creative games to a global audience."
Rockin' Android is a highly respected independent publisher of doujin games that now has the ability to expose its games to the large PlayStation Network audience.
"Our collaboration with game development powerhouse Sony Online Entertainment creates an incredibly unprecedented opportunity to expose many of Japans top indie video games to the worldwide online gaming community," said Rockin Android President Enrique Galvez. "This is truly an exciting time for both companies, the Japanese indie game industry and gaming consumers."
The Gundemonium Collection consists of three titles: Gundemonium Recollection, GundeadliGne, and Hitogata Happa. Each game delivers action packed 2-D anime-style game play, and brings the intense indie 'bullet hell' genre to the PlayStation 3 computer entertainment system. Each of the titles offers multiple levels of frenetic action and high impact weaponry. All of the titles will offer PlayStation Network Trophies and remote play capability.
