Sony claims CryEngine for PSP2

The CryEngine (the cutting-edge game engine behind the Crysis titles) is now touted for an external Sony PSP2 developer release. Crytek, the company behind it has not (yet) announced it though the info can be found on the SCE Japan website. This is the latest of ringing endorsements the new Sony mobile console is getting from figureheads of the gaming dev area, including Epic Games' Tim Sweeney and id Software's John Carmack.

The PSP2 is to currently feature an ARM Cortex-A9 processor and judging by these news and support behind it it will be interesting to see how or whether it will dethrone Apple from its current mobile gaming lead.
