Midway has confirmed the PlayStation Portable lineup for 2006, giving gamers something more to look forward to on Sony’s handheld:

Coming soon (as in this spring) is NBA Ballers: Rebound, the bling-tastic road-to-celebrity sports game featurings “hundreds” of fashion options, including accessories. Oh yeah, you play some basketball in there too.

LA RUSH PSP, the arcade-style racer, will be out in the fall. Story mode lets you race through Los Angeles, or take on dangerous ramps and loops in Stunt Mode. Drive one of 36 licensed vehincles, and use Wi-Fi to race against a challenger.

Also coming is Mortal Kombat: Unchained, a PSP-port of the console “Mortal Kombat: Deception” title (Xbox 1, GameCube, PS2), it contains all of the console features including the following:

  • Two fatalities per character with new death traps, stage fatalities and interactive Kombat backgrounds.
  • Completely redesigned single player Konquest mode provides an entirely fresh experience and a strong RPG gameplay element.
  • Explores worlds populated by NPC (Non-Player-Controlled) characters, unique hidden features, and a real time clock with a 24-hour day.
  • New Chess Kombat Mode – Partake in a game of chess-like strategy, but with a fun (and bloody) Mortal Kombat twist.
  • Puzzle Kombat includes over 10 Mortal Kombat characters, each with a super-move to trigger against opponents.
  • Mortal Kombat: Unchained will be ready for the holiday season. The latest in the MK franchise features some new moves, new combos, and exclusive locations.
