New SOCOM game available exclusively for PSP

Sony Computer Entertainment America Inc. announced that SOCOM: U.S. Navy SEALs Fireteam Bravo is available exclusively for the PlayStation Portable system. Developed by Zipper Interactive, Inc., and produced by Sony Computer Entertainment America's Foster City Studio in association with the U.S. Naval Special Warfare Command, the PlayStation 2 franchise reinvents handheld gaming for both casual gamers and fans of SOCOM with brand new single-player and online gameplay.

SOCOM: U.S. Navy SEALs Fireteam Bravo supports up to 16 players battling together in Ad Hoc and Infrastructure modes for maximum online gaming, an Instant Action Mode for short single-player mission replay options, and interoperability with SOCOM 3: U.S. Navy SEALs, available exclusively for the PlayStation 2 computer entertainment system.

SOCOM: U.S. Navy SEALs Fireteam Bravo supports an unprecedented 16 players as they compete wirelessly online via Infrastructure or Ad Hoc Modes in five different mission types. In SOCOM: U.S. Navy SEALs Fireteam Bravo, players will be immersed in 14 original, realistic international single player missions across four diverse Areas of Operation (AO).

Both SEAL teams on SOCOM 3 and SOCOM: Fireteam Bravo carry out tactics within Poland, Morocco and South Asia, but have completely different mission objectives. The two-man SEAL team is also tasked with completing mission objectives in Chile, an AO exclusive to the PSP system release. After successfully completing a level, players can replay the mission in an entirely new way through the Instant Action option, with different objectives, enemy and object placement. Instant Action missions are designed to last up to 10 minutes, perfect for players short on time and hungry for quick combat.

The title is highlighted by a streamlined control scheme, including one-button press team contextual commands, such as "move to" and realistic lock-on targeting for enemy acquisition. Making the action all the more exciting and realistic to how SEALs operate in the field, SOCOM: U.S. Navy SEALs Fireteam Bravo offers more than 30 authentic weapon and equipment options allowing players to customize their gameplay experience.
