Sony has announced plans to invest $20 million over the next three years in games developed exclusively for the PlayStation Network.

The investment will include support for Sony's first party studios as well as for the Pub Fund, which grants outside developers who make PSN exclusive titles financial assistance without having to sacrifice their IPs.

PSN director of marketing Brandon Stander said: "Our line of PSN exclusives has had great success with titles such as Joe Danger, Critter Crunch, Flower and the PixelJunk series, and we're excited to add new and different game experiences to this portfolio of games that can't be found on any other game console.

"So what does this mean for you as a gamer?" Stander added. "It means more unique, fun, innovative, edgy and higher quality game experiences on PSN that you won't find anywhere else. Under this investment, we're committed to delivering titles that have innovative gameplay mechanics, vibrant visuals, interesting storylines and an artistic element to interactive entertainment that can only be found on PlayStation Network."

The PS3 online service already has big titles on its radar this year, including Thatgamecompany's gorgeous Journey and E3 surprise hit Payday: The Heist.
