YUKE’S Company of America Releases Card-based Strategy RPG for the PSP

CHICAGO - Oct. 28, 2008

Neverland Card Battles for the PSP® (PlayStation®Portable) system is now officially available for purchase from retailers across America. Combining card-based gaming with strategy RPG mechanics, Neverland Card Battles offers hardcore and non-traditional card gamers alike a rich experience found in no other game on the PSP system. Play the part of Galahad, strategically cover as much territory as possible, and disperse legions of card spells to banish the evil deity Hellgaia to the Cardinal Arc shrine forever and save Neverland from judgment day.

Featuring over 200 unique cards, fully customizable decks, 15 different game boards, 10 unlockable characters and ad hoc networking for real-time multiplayer battles, Neverland Card Battles is a card-based SRPG unlike any other game available on the PSP system.

“On the heels of the original concept’s huge success on the PlayStation®2 computer entertainment system in Japan, we saw an opportunity to bring an updated version of this great game over here to America,” said Nate Fitt, Marketing Manager of YUKE’S. “We’re confident that players seeking a new experience on the PSP system will enjoy the rich experience and deep storyline of Neverland Card Battles, from the amount of unique cards available to collect to the multiplayer battle mode. We’re really happy with the final product and excited to get it in the hands of the players.”
