Penny Arcade: Episode One hits US PSN this week (Euroland get it later)

Hothead Games has announced that Penny Arcade Adventures: On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness, Episode One (which we still think is a record for a game with a long name) will arrive on the PSN for download on October 23 in North America. They went onto confirm that other regions will follow shortly thereafter, but gave no specific details.

The PSN version will feature Score Rankings and Trophies, and the ability to customize your character to appear in both 3D and in the 2D cutscenes. That character will then carry forward to future episodes! The game also reportedly supports full 1080p resolution

“We’re so excited to finally be able to get this version into gamers’ hands,” said Vlad Ceraldi, “that we wanted to extend the same value and opportunity to anyone else who hasn’t had a chance yet to play Episode One. Other platforms and digital distribution services can make their own decision regarding pricing, of course, but we’re recommending under $15 for this and all episodes going forward. Episode Two will be coming to PLAYSTATION Network before Christmas and we are really happy how it turned out.”

The game been available on both XBLA and PC since May 21st
