Just as promised, LocoRoco Midnight Carnival is releasing today exclusively on the PlayStation Network for $15. It comes complete with the addition of multiplayer play (locally, over ad-hoc) and the ability to race others around the world by way of global leaderboards. Replays of the top five players on any given leaderboard can be downloaded so that you can hopefully pick up some tips and improve your LocoRoco’ing technique.
If you’re not convinced you want to shell out $15 for the latest iteration of the game (or eat up 190MB on your memory stick or PSP Go), a demo will be released today alongside the full version of the game. No word on what’s contained within the demo, but hopefully it’s got a large enough chunk that gamers will be able to make an informed decision about whether or not Midnight Carnival is worth it.
Look for both the demo and full version of the game on the PlayStation Store later today.
