Dream of taking over the criminal underworld of London? Of course, you do! Sony is making that dream possible through its upcoming PSP game “Gangs of London.”

“Gangs of London” gives gamers the experience of the criminal underworld of modern London without the threat of actually getting in a row with a Cockney thug. Choose the gang you want to lead and then fight it out with the competition.

Each of the nearly 60 different missions is separated by what the developers describe as “stunning graphic-novel-style narratives that guide players through the background story of criminal masterminds fighting for the right to be called London’s number one gangster.”

One mode allows gamers to explore the streets of London on their own terms with a choice of several characters, vehicles, weapons, times of day, and police levels.

“Gangs of London” also features an original Game Share mode that generates a new level unique to each PSP, with the content dependent on the serial number of the user’s system. Once activated, players will find themselves faced with uniquely different mission objectives, environments, characters, and weaponry.

“Gangs of London is organized crime in the palm of your hands,” one of the game developers, Daniel Navarro, says. “Now you can control and give orders to your team of gangsters to orchestrate the most ruthless takeover of the London underworld. It’s an intense depiction of London’s criminal underworld with elements never seen before on a handheld system.”

“Gangs of London” should be in stores later this year.
