More good news out of early Famitsu leaks; Siliconera reports that a PSP re-release of Square Enix classic Final Fantasy III comes with an English language option, just like the first, second and fourth remakes. Since we’ve had nary a sniff of an official western release, and the PSP is blissfully region free, you know how to get your paws on this new version, which launches on September 20 with an auto-battle feature and original soundtrack.

Those looking to grab a Vita ahead of its Western release will be relieved to know there’s at least one import-friendly launch game. IGN reports the Hong Kong version of Uncharted: Golden Abyss will support both Chinese and English – it’s not clear whether this refers to subtitles or dubbing, but you will at least be able to understand what’s going on.

The Vita releases in Japan on December 17 and reaches Hong Kong and Taiwan on December 22 and 23; other international territories have to wait until February 22. Import prices have soared in response to limited stock and significant pre-order demand in both Hong Kong and Japan.

SCEA will launch a new Imports service for the PlayStation Store next week, and it will offer Japan-only starting with Cho Aniki and Gaia Seed.
