Sony's innovative brain breaker, Echochrome, will only be available as a download on the PS Store via PSN.

Unlike in Japan, where players can purchase the game either through PSN or on a UMD for PSP, the US version of the game will not see a release on UMD.


"It'll be coming to North America via the PlayStation Network store only - i.e. not brick and mortar retail - with its own unique 56 levels," reports Newsweek.

The game looks brilliant, and if you've taken the time to make yourself a Japanese PSN account you can actually download an English-speaking demo from the Japanese PS Store via PS3.
