Neverland Card Battles Coming to PSP

YUKE'S Company of America, the U.S. publishing arm of Japanese game developer YUKE'S Company Limited, announced today that it will be publishing Neverland Card Battles for the PSP system in North America. The new title makes its debut on the PSP system, riding on the success of the original PlayStation 2 computer entertainment system hit for the Japanese market. Boasting an original Japanese art style and a cast of super-powered heroes and monsters, Neverland Card Battles will hit retail shelves across North America in October of this year, courtesy of an exclusive distribution agreement with Atlus U.S.A., Inc.

Neverland Card Battles for the PSP will be enhanced with all-new cut-scenes, controls, and ad hoc multiplayer modes. This card-based strategy RPG will shine on the small screen with updated sound and graphics, and a fully optimized 16:9 widescreen display. New ad hoc multiplayer modes will allow two players to battle in real-time for a card war experience unlike any other game.

“The original Japanese version of Neverland Card Battles was extremely well-received and caught our attention as the best trading card game out there,” said Ken Koyama, Manager of Product Development at YUKE’S Company of America.  “We have enhanced and optimized NCB for the portable experience, and will offer one of the finest card-strategy games ever created for the PSP this fall.”

“We are honored to have a strong relationship with YUKE’S Company of America and serve as exclusive North American distributor of Neverland Card Battles,” said Tim Pivnicny, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Atlus.
