But is it a handheld or full console game? And will it help us forget R: Racing?
Namco are currently working on a new Ridge Racer game, which will be released in early 2005. According a recent financial statement from the company, the game will be released by the end of the next fiscal year (which ends on 31 March 2005).
However, no details of the game"s platform have been mentioned - which could mean that the game in question is in fact the PSP incarnation of the arcade-racer series, which we first heard about at last month"s E3.
