Afrika website launched in Japan

Afrika was first revealed in a promotional video during Sony’s press conference at E3 in 2006 and later showcased in a new trailer at the Tokyo Game Show 2007.

Developed by the aptly named Rhino Studios and published by Sony Computer Entertainment, Afrika is the working title of an African safari simulator headed to the PS3.

Sony has not yet announced where the game will be released. However, according to Eurogamer there are currently no plans to publish the game in Europe and the website relates only to Japanese gamers. A North American release date could still be on the cards.

The placeholder website for Afrika launched in Japan yesterday. If you pay the site a visit you will be lulled by the sounds of the wild in the form of wind and bird calls. A single white rhino strolls across the bottom of the page, below it are the words ‘Coming Soon.’

Head over to Rhino Studios website for a closer look at the big five and not so big other animals featured in various screenshots.
