UK, October 18, 2007 – It’s been revealed that Capcom is bringing its frosty shooter Lost Planet to PlayStation 3. Sony fans should rejoice to hear that the game is set to ship with all additional content offered as a download to 360 owners, on the Blu-ray disc. What’s more, the PS3 version will also star extra characters – including Mega Man, Frank (Dead Rising) and Jo – previously only available in the PC edition.

Capcom also announced that this PS3 iteration has a 16-player online mode and that it’s set for release in early 2008. This exciting news comes via semi-official PlayStation 3 blog Three Speech – which helpfully broke the embargo from yesterday’s Capcom Gamers Day. You go, guys!
