News: Planet Moon has been enlisted to revive a classic Sega brand.

Sega has announced they've struck a deal with Planet Moon Studios (the developers of the PSP hit Infected) to revive a "classic Sega brand" on the PSP.

Exactly which Sega brand they'll be working on is unknown, along with any sort of a release date, but all parties involved seem to be happy:

УSega's vast library of properties allows for unlimited possibilities in revitalising fan-favourites on the PSP,Ф said Bob Stevenson, Co-Founder and CEO of Planet Moon Studios. УOur passion for Sega's classic brands combined with our extensive background in crafting original games will help us create a compelling new chapter in this fan-favourite franchise.Ф

УWith an incredible archive of established franchises, Sega is always seeking to establish strategic partnerships with top development talent to revitalise our vintage brands,Ф said Scott A. Steinberg, Vice President of Marketing, Sega of America, Inc. УPlanet Moon's reputation of creating critically acclaimed games makes them the perfect choice to inject originality and ingenuity to our classic IPs.Ф

So what could it be? Afterburner? Alex Kidd? Crazy Taxi? Streets of Rage? With Sega, the possibilities really are endless.

But I guess we'll find out soon.
