SCEA today officially announced SOCOM: U.S. Navy SEALs -- Combined Assault for the PlayStation 2 and SOCOM: U.S. Navy SEALs Fireteam Bravo 2 for the PlayStation Portable. Both titles are due out this fall and will make an appearance at this year's E3.

Combined Assault brings an all-new 4-player cooperative mode to the series, allowing up to four gamers to play through the game's full campaign or Instant Action modes together online. New weapons and vehicles expand upon the series' vast artillery and travel options, and an enhanced AI system makes the enemy better and more tactical than ever before.

Fireteam Bravo 2 is the second SOCOM outing on the PSP and promises to improve on the original in every way. A new non-linear mission system lets players choose their order of progression, and the new Command Equity and Local Influence systems reward players for performing missions well with additional intel, new weapons and more.

As was the case with SOCOM 3 and the original Fireteam Bravo, the two games will feature Crosstalk functionality which allows gamers to share data between the two games and directly influence missions in each game and unlock new features.

Both games are due out this fall. Check back soon for full-blown write-ups on Fireteam Bravo 2 and Combined Assault.
