June 28, 2006 - Over a year following the PSP's Japanese release, Namco's Ridge Racer continues to remain one of the system's most impressive titles. The game has also been one of the system's best sellers to date. Put the two together, and a sequel ought to be on the cards.
The latest issue of Famitsu contains first details on the sequel, titled Ridge Racers 2 in Japan. Ridge Racers 2 continues where the PSP launch title left off, complete with a return of the nitro system, as well as all the drift-based racing that makes the series what it is.
