None

Sony has announced that it has licensed rights from Midway Home Entertainment to bring six classic Midway games to the PlayStation 3. The games are Mortal Kombat II, Gauntlet II, Joust, Rampage World Tour, Rampart, and Championship Sprint.

“We knew these titles would be a perfect fit for the PlayStation Network, and based on Sony Online Entertainment’s legacy in the online space as well as their intimate knowledge of the PlayStation Network, it was an obvious decision they would be a top company to work with to bring this project to fruition,” commented Steve Allison, Chief Marketing Officer at Midway.

“This is a great opportunity for SOE and Midway to come together to bring these arcade treasures to the next-generation of gaming on the PlayStation 3, “ stated John Needham, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer at Sony Online Entertainment. “SOE will continue to explore additional opportunities to bring fun and unique digital content to the PlayStation Network.”

The games will be available for download exclusively for the PlayStation Network beginning in early 2007.
