TGS: PlayStation Mobile Launches in October, SDK in November

Sony has announced that PlayStation Mobile games will begin to arrive on October 3rd.

PlayStation Mobile will launch in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Japan, Australia, Italy, Spain, Germany and France to start, with more to follow. 30 games will be available at launch, ranging from 50 yen (approximately $0.63) to 850 yen (approximately $10.77) including tax. Titles will be developed by third party developers in addition to Sony's worldwide studios, with additional releases coming out often.

On top of that, The PlayStation Mobile Developer Program will also launch in November, allowing developers to access the PlayStation Mobile SDK (software development kit) to create their own games to distribute on the PlayStation Store for PlayStation Certified devices as well as Vita. The Developer Program will roll out in 11 countries and will be available for $99 per year.

Sony also announced that Fujitsu and Sharp will join PlayStation Certified, bringing titles to a massive amount of mobile devices worldwide, particularly in Japan. Sony will expand to additional devices in the future. During E3, it announced a partnership with HTC.
