On their official blog, Sony has confirmed that they have procured an exclusive franchise from Rockstar Games, best known for their popular Grand Theft Auto series.

The blog entry came from Michael Shorrock, Director of 3rd Party Relations at SCEA.  He stated “Everyone knows to have success in this business you need to look ahead, identifying the talent and titles that are going to give consumers new kinds of gaming experiences that help set the bar for the rest of the industry. Rockstar has a heritage for doing just that. We have had incredible success with the GTA franchise and are happy to continue to offer those titles on our platforms, and even more excited about what’s to come from the current and future relationship between our companies. Rockstar really wanted to make a game that you can truly only do on PS3, harnessing the power of CELL and Blu-ray disc and this deal lets them do just that. This is really a win-win situation for both companies,”

The franchise has been confirmed as completely new and is not the previously announced L.A. Noire, which is also coming to the PlayStation 3.

We’ll keep you posted on news as it develops.
