After Burner: Black Falcon on PSP flight deck

Sega today said they are working with video game developer Planet Moon Studios (makers of Giants: Citizen Kabuto, Armed & Dangerous and Infected) on After Burner: Black Falcon for the PlayStation Portable. This new arcade style flight combat title, due in spring 2007, will let players relieve the After Burner arcade game. In their press release Sega described the title as follows:

"After Burner: Black Falcon™ takes flight with intense arcade-style air combat where gamers fly at maximum speeds using high-powered weapons to destroy land and air-based enemies. With a wide selection of customisation options, players can arm each military jet with an array of weapons, design aircraft and improve performance by installing a variety of engine components for faster, more manoeuvrable fighter planes. Weapons and aircraft can also be acquired in the heroic quest to help players defeat squadrons of enemies and menacing bosses.

Numerous multiplayer challenges are available in both competitive and co-op modes and players can challenge others via wifi in a variety of ways, or choose to work with another ace pilot to achieve testing co-op goals."
