As you guys know, Ubisoft was able to acquire the franchising license for the formerly Atari-owned Driver series last year. And now, Ubisoft has just announced that their first title off the franchise, Driver 76, will be heading to PSPs this March.

Currently being developed by Sumo Digital Ltd. and Ubisoft's Reflections Studio, Driver 76 will also be the first title from the series to appear on the PSP. And to go out with a bang, Ubisoft is making sure that the game will be one of the best racing ones yet to come out for the handheld.

Driver 76 will take handheld gamers back to the 70's with Hollywood-style car chases through 27 missions divided into six main plots. Players can take side jobs and earn cash that can be used to customize their rides.

Here are some of the game features:

• all-new 27 missions created exclusively for the PSP
