Sony has clinched a last minute publishing deal with Atari to distribute the upcoming Ghostbusters: The Videogame for PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 2 across Europe this summer.
What does this mean for fans? Well, essentially, if you want a crack at the spooky paranormal adventure romp anytime soon, you’ll have to buy it for a Sony platform – it won’t be arriving on any other format until later in the year, Xbox 360 included.
Speaking on the move, Sony Computer Entertainment Europe (SCEE) product marketing director, Mark Hardy, stated, “We’re committed to bringing the PlayStation family the biggest and best gaming experiences first,” adding, “and it doesn’t get any bigger and better than this blockbuster title.”
“This summer, PlayStation owners will be the first to grab their proton packs and fight the spirit world. We’d like to wish them the best of luck in their ghostbusting endeavours and, of course, to remind them not to cross the streams!”
Ghostbusters: The Videogame will hit shops on June 19 for PS3 and PS2, with a PSP version following in the autumn.
