SEGA Europe and SEGA of America have today confirmed a deal with Planet Moon, the developers of Armed & Dangerous and Infected, that will see the studio resurrect a classic SEGA franchise for PSP.

The news follows similar deals by SEGA with Totally Games, who are also resurrecting another classic IP, and the development of a new Golden Axe title from SEGA internal studio, Secret Garden.

"SEGA's vast library of properties allows for unlimited possibilities in revitalising fan-favourites on the PSP," said Bob Stevenson, Co-Founder and CEO of Planet Moon Studios. "Our passion for SEGA's classic brands combined with our extensive background in crafting original games will help us create a compelling new chapter in this fan-favourite franchise."

"With an incredible archive of established franchises, SEGA is always seeking to establish strategic partnerships with top development talent to revitalise our vintage brands," said Scott A. Steinberg, Vice President of Marketing, SEGA of America, Inc. "Planet Moon's reputation of creating critically acclaimed games makes them the perfect choice to inject originality and ingenuity to our classic IPs."

SEGA are yet to confirm the identity of the franchise.
