PSN: Noby Noby Boy Scheduled For Mid-February In Europe

The wait to knowing exactly what Noby Noby Boy is seems to be almost up - Namco-Bandai Europe have revealed that Noby Noby Boy will be released in PAL territories on February 19th for the low price of €3.99.

The press release gives us a nice look into the premise of the game, but even still, I don't think we'll really understand it until we get our hands on it.

"Delivering a new and innovative approach to online gaming, NOBY NOBY BOY lets players collaborate to unlocks new game stages. As players stretch BOY in their individual play sessions, the lengths to which they grow are uploaded to a persistent character known as GIRL, who grows at the same rate of all the players in the world. GIRL starts at Earth and expands through the solar system as more games are played and BOYs from all players continue to grow. When GIRL reaches a new milestone in the solar system, these areas are unlocked as playable stages in the game for everyone around the world."

With Flower out on February 12th in North America, Noby Noby Boy shouldn't be too far behind. Looks like February is the month for crazy ideas over on PSN.
