In North America, XSEED is releasing
a bunch of Nihon Falcom PSP games, including
Ys Seven and several
The Legend of Heroes games, on UMD, with
Ys Seven getting the full
limited-edition treatment. XSEED is also planning to provide Europe with a bumper crop of Falcom games -- in a convenient format. A comment left by XSEED on its
Facebook page reveals plans to release the games in Europe as PSN downloads. The XSEED rep said that the releases would occur "shortly after the North American release, but a UMD release is unlikely in Europe."
Unfulfilled desires for cloth maps aside, the PSN distribution method means a lot of new RPGs for Europe, and it means that XSEED is less likely to go bankrupt getting them there. The first game in the XSEED/Falcom partnership,
Ys Seven, arrives in North America late this summer.
