Sony has announced that Kingdom of Paradise, exclusively on the PSP, has shipped to stores nationwide. The game was rated "T" for Teen by the ESRB and has a manufacturer's suggested retail price of $39.99.

"Kingdom of Paradise offers a unique gameplay experience on PSP," said Susan Nourai, the director of online and product marketing for Sony Computer Entertainment America. "With its fighting system, epic story, and wi-fi gameplay options, Kingdom of Paradise bolsters the PSP lineup and provides gamers with the ultimate portable action-RPG for this holiday season."

Players take control of Shinbu, a young warrior outcast, as he journeys out to bring peace to the world of Ouka. Throughout the game, players are given the chance to customize their sword-fighting skills the way they see fit.

Kingdom of Paradise also allows players to go online wirelessly through both Ad-Hoc and Infrastructure modes. Ad-Hoc mode allows players to take their customized fighters online to battle against others, as well as allow players to trade sword-fighting skills. Infrastructure mode allows players to gain access to special defensive skills, items, and even a sword not found in the game.
