Forbidden Siren headed to US PSN next week

20130111_forbidden_siren

Siren, or Forbidden Siren to those of us in PAL regions, is coming to the US PlayStation Store next Tuesday, a post on the US PS Blog has announced. The 2003 survival horror classic didn’t set critics on fire at launch but has become a cult favourite, noted particularly for its deliberately traditional Japanese spooks, which went down well just as Asian horror cinema was gaining wider appreciation. The SCE Japan production spawned two follow-ups including a PlayStation 3 re-imagining of the first one. No word on pricing or European launch as yet.
