EA brings Dead to Rights to PSP in Europe

Dead to Rights: Reckoning, the PlayStation Portable follow-up to Namco Hometek's surprisingly gritty and violent remake of A Man And His Dog (okay, not really) is coming to Europe this winter courtesy of Electronic Arts.

The publishing giant has signed another European distribution deal with Namco - following on from relationships on titles including Soul Calibur 2 - which will see the Rebellion-developed game arriving here before Christmas.

As well as the single-player campaign which follows on from the PlayStation 2 original title, the PSP version also offers wireless deathmatch play, and the game promises a much finer degree of control over the canine member of the crime-fighting duo, Shadow.
