Mizuguchi’s new addictive PSP puzzler set to be published in Europe by Ubisoft...

Ubisoft has today announced that it is to publish Lumines on the PSP when the handheld launches in Europe. The game, which has been developed by Rez creator Tetsuya Mizuguchi, has proved to be a big hit in Japan, where it has gone on to sell over 40,000 units since the Japanese launch of the PSP in December 2004. The news follows the announcement the news in February that Ubi would also be publishing the title in US.

Confirming the deal, John Parkes, Director of Marketing at Ubisoft said, â??Ubisoft is thrilled to partner with Bandai and Q ENTERTAINMENT to bring Lumines for the PSP to the European launchâ?¦Lumines is such a unique and exciting title, we're very pleased to add it to Ubisoft's lineup of superior games.â?

Weâ??ve been playing Lumines on our PSP for quite a while now and if we can tear ourselves away from it weâ??ll bring you a review soon. In the meantime the game can be summed up as being the 21st Century Tetris with a Rez style kicking soundtrack.

We are of course still waiting for an official PSP launch date for Europe, which weâ??ll bring to you as soon as itâ??s announced...

Addictive. Every PSP owner should have this game and one of the mercury games in their collection.

Lumnines is one of the best puzzle games that I have played for a while. You know a puzzle game is good when you start having dreams about playing it. The gameplay is simple and the graphics are amazing. All of it is rounded off nicely by the music and sounds. All in all, its a must have for any puzzle player or anyone with a PSP for that matter.
