Sony Online Entertainment (SOE) is licensing the rights from Midway Home Entertainment Inc to reconfigure and release six classic Midway games for the PS3.

Mortal Kombat II, Gauntlet II, Joust, Rampage World Tour, Rampart and Championship Sprint will be available for digital download through the PlayStation Network starting in early-2007.

The downloads will allow gamers to get back into the swing of how things once were in their own homes.

“We knew these titles would be a perfect fit for the PS Network, and based on Sony Online Entertainment’s legacy in the online space as well as their intimate knowledge of the PS Network, it was an obvious decision they would be a top company to work with to bring this project to fruition”, said Steve Allison, chief marketing officer, Midway.
