Sony has announced that upcoming PS3 Play, Create, Share title ModNation Racers will also be getting a PSP release. The portable version of kart racer promises to feature all of the creation tools of its hi-def cousin. It will also be releasing side by side with the PS3 game sometime this summer.

“PSP owners will be able to get their hands on a PSP version of the game; allowing you the same creative tools to make your mod, kart and tracks while your on the move/on holiday/at your grandparents house,” Liam Quigley, European Product Manager for ModNation Racers declared on the official PlayStation Blog. “You will also be able to upload, download, remix and race creations by the PSP ModNation community.”

We still don’t have a firm release date for ModNation Racers, but there’s a publilc beta going on right now, which is producing some excellent content and really getting people excited so we’re already looking forward to it.
