Adventure Player is an upcoming PSP title from From Software, which just might push a few of the hardcore types over the edge towards a purchase. It's an adventure game making utility/game, which will allow the creation of ADV, puzzle and quiz games, which can then be uploaded and distributed to others. Likewise, content can be downloaded, to be saved on the memory stick. The games are developed on the PC via a program called Adventure Player Studio, which will be downloadable when the game is released. Three game scripts will be available upon release, including Echo Night - and more scripts will be made available by From as time wears on. They hope to partner with other companies to make adventure games downloadable in this way. The patching and fan translation potential is huge here. The game will hit retail in June for only 3,990 yen. Thanks to GS, presumably our pal hiro, for the news.
