Publisher testing waters for physical release on UMD
The PSP is still going strong, well, sort of. New games likeCorpse Party: Book of Shadowsare still making their way to the system thanks to the wonders of digital distribution. However, it’s a rare day that a new release comes to the system in physical form.
Perhaps it’s because the demand isn’t there. AClass of Heroes 2Kickstartercampaign failed to gain traction last year, but that hasn’t stopped Gaijinworks from trying to secure a UMD release for the upcoming PSP role-playing game.
The publisher needs to shift at least 2,500 units to make a physical release worthwhile and are currentlygauging interest over at their website. If successful, Gaijinworks will begin taking pre-orders for the boxed edition of game, which will cost $35 and come with a code for a digital version.
Regardless of what happens with the UMD release,Class of Heroes 2will be available in the not too distant future viaPlayStation Networkfor $25.
