[i]Midnight Club 3: DUB Edition[/i] and a new [i]Grand Theft Auto[/i] title will indeed be making their way onto the PSP this year, according to Rockstar Games. Both games, a port of [i]DUB[/i] and an all new [i]GTA[/i] set in Liberty City, are in development by Rockstar Leeds with help from the company’s San Diego and North Studios.

“We are working very closely with Rockstar North and Rockstar San Diego to ensure that both Grand Theft Auto and Midnight Club 3: DUB Edition remain faithful to the initial vision of these respective franchises,” said Gordon Hall, President of Rockstar Leeds.

“We understand that gamers’ expectations will be very high for new PSP handheld system titles and we are confident that we can deliver exhilarating experiences that will set the standard for what a PSP game can be with Midnight Club 3: DUB Edition and our new Grand Theft Auto title.”

Be on the lookout for both titles at or near the launch of the PSP system.
