Sony Computer Entertainment Worldwide Studios (SCE WWS) will be collaborating with developer Quantic Dream on an exclusive PlayStation 3 title. More details will be announced soon.

Sony says Quantic Dream has an outstanding track record in delivering interactive, cinematic games with true emotional depth. Combined with the power of the Cell Broadband Engine and game development technology of PS3, the project is expected to set a new benchmark in delivering emotionally compelling experiences to gamers.

Founded in 1997 by David Cage, Sony says French developer Quantic Dream has achieved international renown for its ground-breaking innovation within the games industry, "particularly in the areas of interactive narration and emotional content".

In particular Quantic Dream was responsible for 2005's award winning Fahrenheit (known as Indigo Prophecy in the US and Canada).

Michael Denny, Vice President, SCE Worldwide Studios, says: "We're really excited to be working with Quantic Dream for the first time and to have this opportunity to once again push the gaming experience to realise a new level of interactivity and, in particular, to engage players at an emotional level never experienced before. We're looking forward to revealing more news on this special title later this year."

David Cage, Founder, President and CEO of Quantic Dream, says: "We always believed that 'next generation' meant more meaningful content based on players' emotional involvement. To us, PS3 is the only platform that can truly deliver on this promise, and SCE WWS is a group that is both inspiring and pleasant to work with."
