Riviera Comes to the PSP

The GBA RPG receives an unexpected port

From the pages of the latest Famitsu comes an announcement from developers Sting to bring the Game Boy Advance RPG Riviera: The Promised Land to the PSP. An odd title to port, when considering that the GBA title was a port itself, originally released on the long since departed Wonderswan handheld.

In terms of visuals, the PSP version does not look remarkably different from its GBA cousin, with the only new additions currently revealed being new illustrations for cutscenes and fully voiced dialogue.

The chances of North American gamers seeing this game localized are probably quite slim, considering the other versions of Riviera where somewhat niche titles themselves. But then again you never know. Those interested in importing can expect to see the game hit Japan later this year.
