Sega Europe Ltd. just sent out a press release saying that it has teamed up with development studio Sports Interactive to bring PlayStation Portable owners the latest iteration in the Football Manager series of video games, Football Manager Handheld 2008. It is expected to ship this Christmas.

Aside from the graphical enhancements that come with the new game, Football Manager 2008 will sport new skin and layout that should provide players better navigation. Tactics can now be customized and be shared with other users while the match engine was optimized to limit waiting and loading times.

Aside from the already mentioned, Football Manager Handheld 2008 will also let players add a reserve squad. Sports Interactive Studio Director Miles Jacobson had this to say:


When we first started on the quest for a real pick up and play football management game, we didn't even believe ourselves that the game would be able to have the depth that is does, whilst still being so much fun to play in bite size chunks, or on long journeys and holidays.


While waiting for the actual release date, just take a look at the first batch of screenshots released for the title.
