Italian publisher Black Bean has signed a distribution deal with Koch Media for its upcoming, and now officially licensed, Superbike World Championship 07.
The racer will arrive on PS2 and PSP in Q2 this year, and subsequently on Xbox 360, PS3 and PC in Q4 this year.
Milestone Interactive, the team behind the original Superbike games, is developing the new title, and the addition of the official licence means the racer will now boast real world riders, bikes and circuits.
Of the deal with Koch, Black Bean’s UK MD Chris Mehers stated: “Milestone’s ability to produce stunning bike games combined with a powerful licence and Koch Media’s marketing, PR and sales skills will, I’m sure, deliver great results for all concerned.”
Koch MD Craig McNicol added: “We are delighted to sign such a strong licence. The motorbike genre holds much potential and the combination of the great game and the best licence will surely excite trade and gamers alike.”
