'Hudson Gate' coming to PlayStation Home

PlayStation 3 owners can now immerse themselves in a world of Hudson Soft as the company launches 'Hudson Gate' for PlayStation Home.

The portal lounge area will serve as a home-base for all things Hudson including games, virtual item shopping, and product information. Within the lounge, there is also a racing match frequently conducted with Dolphy the virtual pet.

As a central digital world within PlayStation Home, 'Hudson Gate' will include the Dolphy racing mini-game, in which eight Dolphies compete. Players can watch, vote and participate in the races to obtain virtual rewards. Players can also purchase a Dolphy Room which enables them to breed their own Dolphy pets for them to race.

Hudson Soft was established in 1973. Since then it has marketed a wide range of products, including console and PC software, accessories, LSI, operating systems, and other technologies.
